"Whither Marxism" considers the fate of Marxism after the global
collapse of communism. This collection, the companion volume to
Jacques Derrida's "Specters of Marx", reassesses Marx as a
philosopher and political thinker and examines the wider questions
about the current status of Marxist social goals. What is living
and what is dead in Marxism? Has the collapse of communism also
spelled the death of Marxism and of Marx as an important political
thinker? Have we reached "the end of history" as Frances Fukayama
has argued, where pluralistic democracies and capitalist economies
reign supreme? Given the plight of the homeless, the lack of
adequate health care, environmental degradation, racism and
enormous national debt burdens, what sort of a model for the future
do we have? "Whither Marxism?" raises these questions in an
international and interdisciplinary context. It brings leading
scholars from North America and Western Europe into conversation
with scholars from former communist countries who lived through and
often participated in these transformations.
