Is it possible for socialists to adhere to marxian class analysis and at the same time enthuse over the emancipatory potential of new social movements? In this paper I would like to provide an affirmative answer by presenting an eight-point argument which contains an interpretation of marxian class analysis and the proposition that there are many paths to class consciousness consistent with it . I Some practical implications of this outlook will be discussed . Implicitly the argument defends class analysis against the recent attacks from what has been referred to as 'post-marxism' (see Geras, 1987 and Laclau & Mouffe, 1987), while rejecting the narrow conception of class struggle espoused by a number of marxist groups which regard the struggles of new social movements as a diversion from the class struggle in the place of employment . I will return to these rival positions and the important methodological considerations which they raise in the conclusion
