PAPERBACK, very good, page 5 dog-eared, looks unread after that. EAGLETON, TERRY. Why Marx Was Right. New Haven: Yale University Press, 2018, second edition, xvi, 258pp., . In this book, the author 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, this book is as urgent and timely as it is brave and candid. Written with wit, humor, and clarity. ISBN 9780300231069.
