He examines the historical roots of Marx’s thinking, its enduring insights, and its blind spots — especially in relation to subjectivity, culture, and the complexities of global capitalism. The result is a philosophy-meets-politics book that neither canonises nor dismisses Marx, but invites serious engagement with his problems and legacies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1212\" data-start=\"1075\"\u003eA concise, accessible introduction for readers interested in Marxism, critical theory, and the ongoing debates about capitalism’s future.
