Since the onset of global crisis in recent years, academics and
economic theorists from various political and cultural backgrounds
have been drawn to Marx's analysis of the inherent instability of
capitalism. The rediscovery of Marx is based on his continuing
capacity to explain the present. In the context of what some
commentators have described as a "Marx renaissance", the aim of
this book is to make a close study of Marx's principal writings in
relation to the major problems of our own society, and to show why
and how some of his theories constitute a precious tool for the
understanding and critique of the world in the early twenty-first
century. The book brings together varied reflections on the Marxian
oeuvre, drawing on different perspectives and fields, and argues
its case in two different parts. The first will encompass such
diverse areas and themes as political thought, economics,
nationalism, ethnicity, post-capitalist society, freedom,
democracy, emancipation, and alienation, showing in each case how
Marx has still today an invaluable contribution to make. The second
presents a complete and rigorous account of the dissemination and
the reception of Marx's work throughout the world in the last
decade. Both parts make a significant contribution to the current
research on Marx and Marxisms. This book was originally published
as a special issue of Socialism and Democracy.
