What Have I Learned from Marx and What Still Stands?

Adam Przeworski

Politics & Society, 2021, vol. 49, issue 4, 433-450

Abstract: Should one read Marx today? Which of his theories survive the test of time and which should be abandoned? This article reviews four of Marx’s themes: the quest for material abundance, the compatibility of capitalism and democracy, the role of the state, and the theory of the dynamics of capitalism.
