On his trip to Longon s Highgate cemetery, where Karl Marx is
buried, Charles Derber, an American sociologist, chances upon an
encounter with none other than Marx s ghost. The ghost offers
insight into the great revolutionary s personality and biography
through the course of a night-long conversation with Derber,
covering a long list of the important issues of the day: the
economic crisis, globalization, climate change, war, racism, left
and right-wing politics, the future of capitalism, emerging
economic models, and revolutionary activism by citizens in Tunisia,
Egypt, Libya even Wisconsin. The ghost of Marx reconsiders his
theories as he speaks eloquently about American labor,
environmental issues, peace, social justice, civil rights,
immigrant rights, as well as gender and anti-racist struggles. The
ensuing conversation is engrossing, funny, provocative, and
interrupted occasionally with appearances from ghosts such as John
Maynard Keynes. Offering a new vision of the stunning relevance and
tragic flaws of the historical Marx, Marx s Ghost reveals a
surprising Great Transition to a transformed future."
