Guardian
Late Capitalism is the answer to how Marx might view the complex economic phenomena of<br />the 1970s. It is sophisticated, well written, impressively documented. This volume is, indeed,<br />one of the major contributions of the last decade to Marxist economics.

I've learned a lot over many years from reading Mandel, and I have a lot of respect for his memory.
- Ken MacLeod,
Marx's concept of "alienation" which gained much currency among Marxists in the twentieth century, traces the development of debates surrounding the labor theory of value, Marx's writings on communism and "crisis." These debates and discussions started by Marx have not ended and remain evermore pertinent to the present day. These writings are vital not just to academics but also to those who wish to interpret and to change the world.
