I know what you’re going to say—there are no citations to Sohn-Rethel in this criticism! Two things: first, I know that’s bad intellectual practice and I will return to I&ML to self-crit when I am inevitably told I am wrong; second, by not re-reading Sohn-Rethel before I write and citing Sohn-Rethel while I write this I am actually staying true to Sohn-Rethel’s approach to criticizing philosophy.
Could you elaborate more on the question of relation between the concept of real abstraction and the nominalism-realism polemic? Thank you, I think that the reflections about the lability of the 'abstract thinking' notion in SR's work are really good
