Some resources on Marx
As promised, I wanted to alert you to a few things I’ve posted in the past for students with regard to Marx and Engels:
- this post shows a picture of the “camera obscura” and explains the way the object works as a metaphor for Marx.
- Here I talk a bit about the relevance of Marx in the 2010s and places you might go to dig deeper into Marx’s work or postmarxist political thinking.
- Finally, here’s a look at examples of the “fetishism” of commodities from relatively recent commercials. We’ll dig into this on Thursday.
