Marx Today: Selected Works and Recent Debates

This book provides, in one volume, primary sources by Marx and critical commentary which relates Marxism to contemporary social and political topics. It includes six brief works by Marx and ten articles by scholars, sympathetic to, but critical of, Marxism, including Heidi Hartmann's classic essay which criticizes Marxism for misunderstanding gender oppression, The Unhappy Marriage of Marxism and Feminism. No previous anthology of Marx has combined both brief works by Marx and multiple critical essays elaborating on his themes or engaging the shortcomings of his arguments.
