The future of Marxism and the Marxism of the future
The article gives a description of the main content of the book “Marx after Marx: The Post-Soviet School of Critical Marxism and Its Friends” (M., 2018, A. Buzgalin and M. Voeikov (ed.)) and the main distinctive features of the post-Soviet school of critical Marxism. The author shows that in the 21st century Marxism is also necessary for those who are more or less ready to contribute to the process of social emancipation and disalienation: to promote the transformation of competition into solidarity, exploitation into cooperation, inequality into justice, enslavement (not only of power but also of things, money, patriarchy, faith in a good king, etc.) - into freedom. Modern Marxism allows us to show the historical limits of capitalism, to answer questions about who in the world and in Russia owns a real economic and political power, what is the Human Being in its social and economic life, how to combine economic efficiency with social justice.
