Karl Marx. World Spirit

Tens of years, the doctrine of Karl Marx was the official ideology of the Soviet Union and a number of other countries. All this time, the genuine Marx was in the shadows: his theories were "supplemented" and distorted, his mistakes were silent, his multifaceted contradiction person was squeezed into the framework of canonical lives. Reaction to this was the research, where Marx appears in a completely unexpected light. Among them and the Jacques of Attali - French politics, political scientist, economist, one of the leading theoretics of globalization and "new world order". Scrupulously examining the biography of Marx, his family life, health, relationships with friends and enemies, the author focuses on creative heritage of his hero. Contrary to the usual ideas, he sees in Marx not the premediation of totalitarian regimes, but a commitment of democracy, liberalism and market relations. You can agree with this or argue, but the book of J. Attali, translated into many languages, you need to read everything interested in the figure of the founder of scientific communism
