The Praxis school was a Marxist humanist philosophical circle, whose members were influenced by Western Marxism.[1] It originated in Zagreb in the SFR Yugoslavia, during the 1960s.
Prominent Praxis school theorists include Gajo Petrović and Milan Kangrga of Zagreb and Mihailo Marković of Belgrade. From 1964 to 1974 they published the Marxist journal Praxis, which was renowned as one of the leading international journals in Marxist theory. The group also organized the widely popular Korčula Summer School in the island of Korčula.
