Marx at the Borders-Ethnicity, Nation, Nationalism and Non-Western Societies

In his book Marx on the Borders, Kevin Anderson sheds a shocking new light on the question of what we really know about all of his works, by examining Marx's meticulously written, comprehensive but neglected texts with a different perspective and in detail.

Marx's changes to the French edition of Capital
Anderson, who meticulously examines all his texts, including his journalistic work for the New York Tribune, other newspaper articles, and his book notes and comments, comes up with a portrait of Marx that does not fit well with the interpretations we are used to.

By sifting through thousands of pages of articles written by Marx about the countries and societies that remained on the periphery of capitalism at that time, from India to China, from Russia to Poland, from the United States to Ireland and Algeria, we found out that "capitalism is in different geographies". It also summarizes his views, which changed from 1848 to 1883, on issues such as "what kind of development it can follow" and "whether primitive collectivist forms can create new opportunities".

The Marx that Anderson presents to us appears not as a thinker who bases his ideas solely on class, but as a true 21st century intellectual: a theorist whose social criticism is sensitive to the diversity in human social and historical development, and who evaluates nation, race and ethnicity as well as class.

Offering an in-depth reading of Marx's different works, the book
It presents a new portrait of Karl Marx that is sure to ignite heated new debates that go beyond Marx's studies, that will be groundbreaking and change our acceptance...
