In this colletion of essays the eminent social scientist, Dr. P.C.
Joshi, argues that Marxism needs to be extended beyond the
traditional confines set by Lenin and Mao in order to remain
relevant in societies in which individuals have freedom of
political expression and which are witnessing gigantic strides in
communication technology. In democratic societies with a vibrant
media, the Lenin-Mao inspired templates of conspiracy and peoples'
war carry far less traction than in autocracies where communism has
been successful. Dr. Joshi argues that democracy is ingrained in
the spirit and legacy of Marx and the two can be true partners in
social development. This requires tapping into classes and strata
not considered by mainstream Marxists such as intermediate classes,
intellectuals and bureaucrats, and harnessing the liberating
potential offered by advances in technology.
