Too much about his revolution (thanks, Ruskies); not enough about how capitalism would evolve. What would he predict going forward?
Comments
Menand makes some good points against the "market is our only friend" idea.
The emphasis on Marx being a humanist is good.
While listing stuff that is not very Nineteenth Century, I had hoped that Menand would have given a nod to the idea of a whole system, always being made, that Marx was trying to turn Hegel upside down to talk about. It is not just that thinking should try to change things, the Thing is underway all the time, a sum total of all the interactions that make it the way it is.
It Lives.
