Marx's thought is being re-appropriated and re-interpreted by a new generation. In Returns of Marxism, a wide-ranging collection, scholar-activists from around the world return to Marx, but they do so in a way that avoids a dogmatic approach to his writing - focusing instead on what is of relevance to today's struggles against capitalism.
