Richard D. Wolff masterfully explains why Karl Marx's analysis of class struggle is fundamental to a proper understanding of capitalism and explores how to build a more sustainable democratic society. Class struggle is everywhere, and it influences everything and everyone in our society. Marx is the person who first explained this struggle systematically.
