Why Read Marx Today?

Wolff argues that we can detach Marx the critic of current society from Marx the prophet of future society; he remains the most impressive critic we have of liberal, capitalist, bourgeois society. He shows that the value of such does not depend on their views being true, but on features such as their originality, insight and systematic vision.
