Product Description
Review
"A stimulating, judicious and learned book, at times provocative and merry, but, above all, thoughtful on where the world has come from ... and the errors and breakthroughs of judgement which allow us to treat our economic world with enhanced self-consciousness." -- Development Policy Review "A criticism from the Left was that it was over-optimistic to hope for "social capitalism". Well, perhaps. But capitalism is all we've got and Meghnad Desai's book Marx's Revenge, published by Vero, is brilliantly timed." -- William Keegan, The Observer "Marx, if we did but know it, is the prophet and advocate of globalization." -- Will Hutton, Independent Magazine "... anti-globalization activists would do well to check out Marx's Revenge, which is an economic history aimed at the general reader." -- Irish Times
Product Description
"This book is intended to annoy and provoke..." A distinguished economist, and a seasoned heretic, Meghnad Desai has spent most of his like as an advocate of the Left. This book is the culmination of a period of reassessment, initiated by the challenge of Thatcherism, the collapse of the Soviet system, and the British Labour Party's Embrace of market-driven politics, which has led Desai to his recognition of 'the end of the road for democratic socialism'.
