Krätke was working on the history of Marxism since the 1990s He developed a periodization of marxist intellectual history and identified four stages: (1) from 1842 until Marx’ death in 1883, (2) "classical marxism" from 1883 until World War I, (3) the third stage from the Russian Revolution into the 1960s, (4) the last stage of a socioscientific marxism following the Marx-Renaissance of the 1960s.
