Why Marx Was Right

It bears noting that Eagleton's book (despite its title) is not doctrinaire advocacy but a critical interpretation of Marx's/Marx-Engels's thought. As anyone who has bothered to read Marx knows, he was not a theoretician of Communism but of Capitalism. Throughout his book, Eagleton points out what should be obvious: as the contradictions and dysfunctions of Capitalism create ever greater disparities of wealth while failing to deliver even the basic necessities of life for increasing numbers of people throughout the world, Marxist analysis will remain relevant. Put another way, for so long as there is Capitalism, there will be Marxism.

In short, if you don't like Marxism, there is only one way to get rid of it: jettison Capitalism.
