Marx had assumed that the non-Western world would simply traverse a similar historical path to Europe's, at which point his theory would come to have some bearing on the non-West; however, he also once expressed the worry that while On the Continent revolution is imminent and will immediately assume a socialist character is it not bound to be crushed in this little comer, considering that in a far greater territory the movement of bourgeois society is still in the ascendant?'.

And when they are made, as of course they continue to be, they occur in full awareness of the fact that it cannot simply be assumed that autonomy and the like are supra-cultural moral truths. For example, while John Rawls and Jurgen Habermas seek to retrieve the Kantian answer (but without the metaphysics), they also acknowledge that Reason never is 'pure' but that it is deeply rooted in a particular moral and philosophical tradition. In Rawls' later works he abandons altogether the claim that autonomy and equality are values for which a culture-free sanction can be found. See, for instance

In a recent review of Chakrabarty's book, Hardt describes the difference between his and Chakrabarty's view on this point thus: 'My formulation would lead to the conception of …a strong contemporaneity [between a "third world" society and a first world one] that contains within it differences and multiplicities. Chakrabarty's formulation instead leads to a conception of multiple, incommensurable times that exist simultaneously '. Hardt adds that 'these two formulations may not be as different as they initially appear' but I suggest that Hardt's own way of framing the difference reveals how significant it is. See
