The Strange Death Of Marxism by Paul Edward Gottfried
The European Left in the New Millennium
A critical analysis of the contemporary European Left, arguing that classical class-based Marxism has largely faded while a post-Marxist, culturally focused politics—organized around antifascism, multiculturalism, gender, and identity—has risen to dominance in alliance with administrative elites and global capitalism. Surveying developments across several European countries and contrasts with the United States, it contends that the Right often misdiagnoses its opponent as economically socialist, missing that its real power lies in moral-cultural hegemony, memory politics, and managerial institutions rather than traditional Marxist economics.
