Whither Marxism considers the fate of Marxism after the global collapse of communism. This ground-breaking collection, the companion volume to Jacques Derrida's Specters of Marx , reassesses Marx as a philosopher and political thinker and examines the wider questions about the current status of Marxist social goals. What is living and what is dead in Marxism? Has the collapse of communism also spelled the death of Marxism and of Marx as an important political thinker? Have we reached the end of history' as Frances Fukayama has argued, where pluralistic democracies and capitalist economies reign supreme? Given the plight of the homeless, the lack of adequate health care, environmental degradation, racism and enormous national debt burdens, what sort of a model for the future do we have? Whither Marxism? raises these questions in an international and interdisciplinary context. It brings leading scholars from North America and Western Europe into conversation with scholars from former communist countries who lived through and often participated in these transformations.
