This apparent paradox is the underlying theme of this book. It is not yet another exercise in marxology or, for that matter, in demonology. Rather, it engages critically and imaginatively with Marx's own treatment of what are now key issues - underdevelopment, gender, culture, sustainability. It also examines in a sober way the experience of the self-proclaimed socialist societies in relation to the same topics."--BOOK JACKET. |

| Publisher Description: Marx is out of fashion in intellectual circles on the whole but he is increasingly seen as an astute and relevant guide to the spread of a new raw capitalism world wide. This book is not an exercise in a scholastic Marxology, but a timely and lively reappraisal of Marx and the socialist experience in the light of subsequent political and intellectual developments. |
