>>	Anonymous Tue Jan 22 16:42:11 2013 No.3386721 >>3386718 Marxism has evolved past Marx's ideas.

But is it art? !!m1xxKTDNCw0 Tue Jan 22 16:50:11 2013 No.3386747

communist manifesto
theses on feuerbach
das kapital
harvey - a companion to capital

and then it depends where you want to go from there really, lenin, gramsci, luxemburg should probably be read

then move on to the frankfurt school, althusser etc

>>	Anonymous Tue Jan 22 16:52:11 2013 No.3386761 >>3386738 I would rather read Atlas Shrugged than the piece of steaming pseudo-historical shit that is The Black Book of Communism.

>>	Anonymous Tue Jan 22 17:30:21 2013 No.3386942 >>3386714 they still use the hierarchy of Marx, e.g. the modes of production as the basis

>>	Anonymous Tue Jan 22 17:31:21 2013 No.3386948 >>3386942 Well, yes, but that's no reason to read a 2000-page book of which most is irrelevant.

>>	But is it art? !!m1xxKTDNCw0 Tue Jan 22 17:32:53 2013 No.3386957 >>3386948 have you read das kapital?

>>	But is it art? !!m1xxKTDNCw0 Tue Jan 22 17:46:04 2013 No.3387029 >>3387009 it's actually not that bad (after the first 3 chapters)

>>	Anonymous Tue Jan 22 17:47:04 2013 No.3387034 >>3386720 this is shit. Eagleton addresses only the most basic bullshit, I stopped reading after ~2 pages because he equated socialism and marxism.
