Summary

"This collection surveys current research on Marx and Marxism from a diverse range of perspectives. Marx is rescued from 'orientalism', evaluated as a socialist thinker, revisited as a theorist of capitalist development, heralded as a necessary ethical corrective to modern economics, linked to ecologism, and claimed as an inspiration to 'civil society' theorists. There are also major scholarly revisions to the 'standard' historical accounts of Marx's work on the Communist Manifesto, his relationship to the contemporary theories of Louis Blanc and P.-J. Proudhon, and new information about how he and Engels worked together."--BOOK JACKET
