Rafael Echeverria argues (in Economy and Society, Vol. 7 [1978]) that Marx's 1857 Introduction is 'contradictory' because in it he uses 'two different concepts of abstraction'. The contradiction is merely apparent, however, and Marx's reformulation of his plans in 1859 confirms this. His use of the terms abstraction and abstract and his subsequent move towards less ambiguous terminology do not support Echeverria's contentions that the 1859 'rectification' represents a 'profound' alteration in Marx's work and that this is a 'marked change' in his 'position'. Echeverria's analysis leads him to an obscure and inaccurate account of Marx's method and an epistemology that is surprisingly un‐Marxian
