    Marx200 examines the significance of Marxism for today's world. Leading scholars and activists from different countries - including Cuba, India and the UK - show that Marx's ideas continue to provide us with the analysis we need to understand our world today in order to change it. The relevance of Marx's contribution to political economy is discussed, as is Marxism and the ongoing battle of ideas. John McDonnell MP, Shadow Chancellor, writes about Marxism as a force for change in the 21st century. The leader of the Indian Communist Party, Sitaram Yechury, focuses on Marx's legacy 200 years on.Other wide-ranging topics demonstrating the relevance of Marxist ideas and approaches in the current climate include: 'neoliberalism, austerity and Marx', 'capitalism and new technology', 'Marxism and the environment', 'Marxism & Women','Marxism and culture' as well as 'the role of the state', 'Marxism and the present as history' and 'Populist nationalism'.The book is based on a major international conference organised by the Marx Memorial Library to coincide with the 200th anniversary of the birth of Karl Marx on 5 May 2018.Contents include: INTRODUCTIONMARY DAVISMarx200 - The Significance of Marxism in the 21st CenturyJOHN McDONNELLMarx as a Force for Change Today BEN FINEMarx and Value: The Enigma Code for Contemporary Capitalism DENISE CHRISTIEPublic before Profit VIJAY PRASHADEvery Form of Working-Class Activity MARY DAVISWomen, Class and Gender: A Marxist-Feminist PerspectiveJOHN FOSTERHistory and Marx's MethodISABEL MONALThe Battle of Ideas and the Formation of Consciousness DAVID McLELLANMarx's Materialist Conception of History: New Perspectives FRANCISCO DOMINGUEZMarxism and the Peculiarities of Indo-American Socialism ALAN F BLACKWELLArtificial Intelligence and the Abstraction of Cognitive LabourURSULA HUWSThe Onward March of CommodificationCHRISTINE LINDEYBeing a Marxist Artist Under Capitalism DAVID MARGOLIESLiterature and political judgmentTED BENTONThe Ecological Marx?

    This fast-paced and timely book from Vijay Prashad is the best critical primer to the Middle East conflicts today, from Syria and Saudi Arabia to the chaos in Turkey. Mixing thrilling anecdotes from street-level reporting that give readers a sense of what is at stake with a birds-eye view of the geopolitics of the region and the globe, Prashad guides us through the dramatic changes in players, politics, and economics in the Middle East over the last five years. ';The Arab Spring was defeated neither in the byways of Tahrir Square nor in the souk of Aleppo,' he explains. ';It was defeated roundly in the palaces of Riyadh and Ankara as well as in Washington, DC and Paris.' The heart of this book explores the turmoil in Iraq, Syria, and Lebanoncountries where ISIS emerged and is thriving. It is here that the story of the region rests. What would a post-ISIS Middle East look like? Who will listen to the grievances of the people? Can there be another future for the region that is not the return of the security state or the continuation of monarchies? Placing developments in the Middle East in the broader context of revolutionary history, The Death of the Nation tackles these critical questions.
