Sample Book Insights:
#1 Marxism is a critique of capitalism, the most comprehensive and rigorous critique of its kind. It is also the only such critique that has ever been successful in transforming large sectors of the globe. As long as capitalism exists, therefore, Marxism must as well.
#2 The Western system underwent some vital changes in the mid-1970s, when the world suddenly went into a depression. The new information technologies played a key role in the increasing globalisation of the system.
#3 The fall of the Soviet bloc in the late 1980s served to deepen the disenchantment among many on the left, as they had witnessed the system exultant and impregnable in 2008, and knew that the political odds were always on the system in power. #4 Marxism was wrong, but its predictions were right on the mark. Today, there are more extreme inequalities of wealth and power than ever before.
