For many decades, the left has been plagued by the false choice between class politics and countering oppression. Luckily, more and more academics and activists are refusing this choice. The contributors to Marx's Others develop unique and innovative ways of thematizing the conjunctions of race, gender, sexuality, identity, subjectivity, and capitalism. It is an indispensable volume for anyone interested in understanding the current conjuncture - and especially for those who wish to change it.--Dr. Ashley J. Bohrer
