"Contrary to the predictions that consigned Marx to oblivion after the fall of the Berlin Wall, his ideas are once more the object of analysis and debate. Around the world, Marx's writings have been reprinted or brought out in new editions, and there are more new studies of his work. Of particular importance has been the resumed and ongoing publication, started in 1998, of the Marx Engels Gesamtausgabe (MEGA), the historical-critical edition of the complete works of Marx and Engels.

It offers an original reading of the last phase of Marx's intellectual development, which has hitherto pretty much been ignored. Dispelling the myth that Marx ceased to write in his final years, the author points out the relevance of previously unknown or neglected late writings, many of which remain unavailable in English.
