Early life and education


Anderson attended Tenafly High School in Tenafly, New Jersey and attained a BA degree in history from Trinity College (Connecticut) and an MA degree and a PhD in sociology from the City University of New York Graduate Center. His dissertation was on Lenin's reception of Hegel's dialectics, which was later published as Lenin, Hegel and Western Marxism from the University of Illinois Press.




Career


He was involved in the international project of the complete works of Marx and Engels (Marx-Engels-Gesamtausgabe) and working especially on Volume IV/27, which contains a significant amount of the late Marx's notebooks on non-Western and precapitalist societies.
He has also written widely on Marxist theory, Michel Foucault, the Frankfurt School, and contemporary developments in the U.S. and Europe. Anderson obtained American Council of Learned Societies Fellowship and International Erich Fromm Prize in 1996 and 2000 respectively, and National Endowment for the Humanities Collaborative Research Grant in 2001. He again received an American Council of Learned Societies Fellowship in 2019.
His Erich Fromm and Critical Criminology (coedited with Richard Quinney) won the International Erich Fromm Prize from the International Erich Fromm Society in Tübingen, Germany in 2000. More recently, his book Marx at the Margins won Paul Sweezy Book Award from the Marxist Section of the American Sociological Association in 2011. In addition, his Foucault and the Iranian Revolution co-authored with Janet Afary was awarded with the Latifeh Yarshater Award for the Best Book in Iranian Women's Studies in 2006.
In the American Sociological Association, he has also served as Chair of the Section on Marxist Sociology and of the Section on the History of Sociology and Social Thought, as a Council Member of the Sections on Theory and on the History of Sociology, and as a member of the W. E. B. Du Bois Career of Distinguished Scholarship Award Selection Committee.
