Einführung in den Marxismus

Bert Brecht knew it well: A somewhat complete understanding of Marxism costs today, as a colleague assured me, between a thousand and twenty-five thousand gold marks, and that’s without the hassles. Below that, you won’t get anything substantial, at best a subpar Marxism without Hegel or one missing Ricardo, etc. The introduction to Marxism by Ernest Mandel presented here not only comes in significantly below these price expectations; it particularly offers a comprehensive first insight into the theory and practice of Marxism – historical materialism, Marxist economic theory, the history of the labor movement, and the key tactical and strategic issues of the labor movement in our time.
