Von der hinteren Coverseite

Did the United States really "win" the Cold War? Is the fall of Communism only a temporary setback for Marxism, or has the free market prevailed, once and for all? In After the Fall, many of the most important Marxist scholars and journalists gather to argue that justice and equality are more important now than ever. They worry that the last ten years have brought us plenty of global capitalism but not much of the democratic freedom that the world had hoped for. The years from 1989 to 1991 did score some pretty heady victories for freedom, but After the Fall argues that there is much work to be done in detaching the best parts of Marxism from the fallen carcass of Communism.
