Beskrivning

More than 20 years after the collapse of the Berlin wall and the disappearance of Marxism as a (supposed) state ideology, this peer-reviewed book attempts to meet the need for a serious and long-term Marxist book publishing programme by releasing original monographs, newly translated texts and reprints of classics. Much has been written about Marx's irrelevance, here Carchedi attempts to redress the balance, he introduces the most hotly debated issues and evaluates them using Marx's method. Through these analyses what emerges is a solid foundation upon which to develop.
