A critique of the epistemology (1972) of Alfred Sohn-Rethel understood as unconscious of the transcendental subject, which pivots around the famous real abstraction term [Realabstraktion] as a principle of social synthesis; and on the other hand, to measure some scopes and limitations with respect to the New Readings of Marx, specifically, the critique of the splitting of value [Wertabspaltungskritik].
