In the late 1960s the School took a "Marxist turn", led by Topolski, which led to the publication of a series of volumes including contributions by the School's main representatives.

But however extensive his borrowings (no explicit debt was ever acknowledged), in Einstein's hands the distinction becomes a methodological tool of impressive scope and fertility.
