Features of Introducing Marxism A Graphic Guide PDF

Was Marx himself a ‘Marxist’? Was his visionary promise of socialism betrayed by Marxist dictatorship? Is Marxism inevitably totalitarian? What did Marx really say? “Introducing Marxism” provides a fundamental account of Karl Marx’s original philosophy, its roots in 19th century European ideology, his radical economic and social criticism of capitalism that inspired vast 20th century revolutions. It assesses Marxism’s Russian disciples, Lenin, Trotsky and Stalin who forged a ruthless dogmatic Communism. The book examines the alternative Marxist approaches of Gramsci, the Frankfurt School of critical theory and the structuralist Marxism of Althusser in the 1960s. It marshals postmodern interpretations of Marxism and raises the spectre of ‘post-Marxism’ in Derrida’s confrontation with Fukuyama’s ‘end of history’ doctrine.Introducing Marxism A Graphic Guide PDF

Good Book for Beginners

My son was able to understand Marxism more easily with the way this book was written and the drawings that went along with the writing

I was expecting the full-size version which I had before. Of course, the material is the same but the listing should have indicated that this is much smaller than the original publication.

A critical introduction to Marxism

November 24, 2018

Although the writer at the end does not shy away from criticizing socialism, the book still rises interesting points that needs to be addressed from the part of Marxists and socialists as well.

5 Stars for Situating Both Marx and Marxism

January 21, 2015

Required reading for those who want to wrap their heads around Marx in a provisional yet complete way, yet who wisely distrust going on the wild goose chase of Marxist theory. Good view of all relative critiques and all previously and currently crowned responses.

While this book does an excellent job in explaining Marx’s philosophy

August 1, 2015

While this book does an excellent job in explaining Marx’s philosophy, as you get into the book the author begins to insert his extremely anti-Marxist opinions. He also makes sarcastic anti-Marxist remarks. Not a serious guide to Marxism.

Bait and Switch — This is an incomplete, biased book on Marxism

October 18, 2018

The graphic approach is entertaining and the writing is good, but the coverage of 20th century Marxism is very incomplete. The first half of the book appears to be sympathetic to Marxist theory, which may be the author’s strategy of drawing you in for the big reveal. The whole Soviet experiment is then dismissed in a few pages while a great amount of space goes into Eurocommunism, Gramsci, and a variety of academic Marxist and post-Marxist theoreticians (mostly French); very quickly the text wheels around from being a description of Marxism into a short attack on Marxism that takes Marxism’s failures for granted without really explaining them. For instance the role of Gorbachev in the collapse of the Soviet Union is never mentioned; Gorbachev does not appear in the book despite the fact it was written in 2013. An extremely disappointing bait-and-switch.

Easily readable

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 6, 2021

Well drawn in comic form, yet it grapples with some complex ideas and history. You could say it’s a dummie’s (that’s me) introduction to Marx his ideas and history following it’s implementation through Russia, China, and other countries. I think the fear of communism in non communist countries like Britain and America triggered the Labour parties and the more fairer treatment of workers. Easy to read, fun to look at, though not easy to get your head through some of the ideas. Worth snapping up at the reduced price. I wonder how it could be implemented in ‘conservative’ Britain today. Was it a failure or would it stand the test of time? Very sad the way it allegedly went wrong.

Worst of all

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 23, 2017

More than half the book is NOT about marxism. I understand the historical context and post-marxism is important but more room could have been used to explain the doctrine. Also, many pages about the Soviet Union, post war philosophy but NO mention whatsoever of WWII or its consecuences and influence.
Some concepts are explained well, others are not, and others are simply misunderstood.
Worst of all, the author, especially near the end of the book, seems to be selling his own ideology, a conservative ones at that. His 10 point criticism at the end is practically a political panflet.
A shame. Other books in this series are great (see Nietzsche, etc.) but not this one. Its not a bad overview but if the subject interests you, go somewhere else.
