The Power of Marxist Thought

This edited volume demonstrates the intellectual power of Marxist thought. From the vantagepoint of multiple fields and disciplines, the authors compare Marxist and non-Marxist approaches regarding a wide range of issues and articulate how being informed by a Marxist approach can produce a unique, essential and comprehensive analysis of pressing political, social, economic and ecological issues. The series of volumes of which this is the first suggests that Marxism is an important step in the development of human knowledge overall and encourages non-Marxists to view Marxism as a contribution that needs to be engaged.
