Reflections on the Marxist Theory of History

The book explores the resurgence of anti-capitalist sentiment and activism, particularly following the protests in Seattle, as a response to the idea of the 'End of History.' It emphasizes Marx's critique of capitalism, arguing that it is not a natural state but a historical construct with inherent contradictions, similar to feudalism and slavery. The narrative suggests that the call for an alternative world is grounded in a historical understanding of economic systems and their transformations.
