Audio Book Summary

In this combative, controversial book, Terry Eagleton takes issue with the prejudice that Marxism is dead and done with. Taking ten of the most common objections to Marxism-that it leads to political tyranny, that it reduces everything to the economic, that it is a form of historical determinism, and so on-he demonstrates in each case what a woeful travesty of Marx's own thought these assumptions are. In a world in which capitalism has been shaken to its roots by some major crises, Why Marx Was Right is as urgent and timely as it is brave and candid. Written with Eagleton's familiar wit, humor, and clarity, it will attract an audience far beyond the confines of academia.

  • JEFFREY B.

    This book is irresponsible and misleading to the young people in academia that will, that will eventually read it. Fear this type of clever justification of modern Marxism in action. The young American that lives in the state that allow violent expression of a political view, without recourse, would use this type of literature to justify and motivate more violence.
