It’s been over 150 years since Karl Marx published Das Kapital, yet its relevance has only grown stronger. From exposing capitalism’s contradictions to influencing global political movements, Marx’s work continues to shape economic and social debates. But why does Das Kapital remain so impactful, and what can it teach us about today’s world? In this video, we break down the core ideas of Das Kapital, surplus value, class struggle, and the inevitability of capitalist crises—to understand why Marx’s analysis remains indispensable in the 21st century.
And if that whets your appetite, go and look up books and podcasts by David Harvey. He brings Marx to a 21st century audience
can you link anything specific?
i’m intrigued how the next iteration will succeed where all others have failed. anything is better than this ai slop. i see there’s a new buzzword “scientific socialism” - very scientific i’m sure
Here’s a playlist. AI isn’t going away anytime soon. Socialism has been scientific since Marx.
thanks for the link. i think we’ll have to agree to disagree on the meaning of scientific
oh and AI is good at many things; generating slop, as it’s commonly known, being one of its specialties
