This volume explores how technical dimensions of a Marxian analysis remain relevant to our understanding of inequality, of exploitation and oppression, and of financialization in the age of global capitalism. Contributors to this important volume track Marx in promoting emancipatory practices in Latin America, tackle how Marx informs issues of race and gender, explore current social movements and the populist turn, and demonstrate how Marx can guide strategies to deal with the existential environmental crises of the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMarx matters because Marx still provides the best analysis of capitalism as a system, and his ideas still point to how society can organize for a better world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContributors are: Jose Bell Lara, Ashley J.
