An interview with Neil Faulkner

Abstract

Neil Faulkner is a British historian and archaeo-logist, well known thanks to his works regarding Marxism and divulgation. In this journal of archaeology, we are devoted to the study and discussion regarding theory and its political influences within archaeology and history in general. It is because of this that we embarked into this theoretical endeavour, aiming to introduce some of our readers to the forementioned author, who may be unknown to them. Nonetheless, Neil Faulkner has written several books, and some of them have been already translated into Spanish. We hope this humble interview succeeds in its primary goal, which is to understand better the mind behind the aforementioned books. Furthermore, we want to know what its motivations and deepest thoughts regarding several political and philosophical questions are, as these are irremediably linked to historiography and archaeological theory.
