Description

Within this combative, questionable book, Terry Eagleton takes issue with the bias that Marxism is dead and done with. Getting five of the very frequent arguments to Marxism—that it results in governmental tyranny, that it reduces everything to the financial, that it's a kind of historical determinism, and therefore on—he shows in each situation exactly what a woeful travesty of Marx's own considered these assumptions are. In a global where capitalism hasbeen shaken to its roots by some key crises, Why Marx Was Right is really as regular and immediate because it is honest and courageous. Created with Eagletonis accustomed wit, humor, and quality, it'll attract an audience far beyond the boundaries of academia.
