Marx's critique of political economy is vital for understanding the crisis of contemporary capitalism. Yet the nature of its relevance and some of its key tenets remain poorly understood. This bold intervention brings together the work of leading Marx scholars Slavoj Zizek, Frank Ruda and Agon Hamza, to offer a fresh, radical reinterpretation of Marxism that explains the failures of neoliberalism and lays the foundations for a new emancipatory politics. Avoiding trite comparisons between Marx's worldview and our current political scene, the authors show that the current relevance and value of Marx's thought can better be explained by placing his key ideas in dialogue with those that have attempted to replace them. Reading Marx through Hegel and Lacan, particle physics, and modern political trends, the authors provide new ways to explain the crisis in contemporary capitalism and resist fundamentalism in all its forms. Reading Marx will find a wide audience amongst activists and scholars. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

The argument that Marxism as a practice should return to Hegel is interesting, but who really has the time to read, let alone competently understand Marx and Hegel? Perhaps this is sympomatic of the wider trend of theorisation within marxism and its gradual divorce from practical application. The last gasps of an increasingly desparate dream.
But as always, reading philosophy is fun and reading about marxism is fun.
