Andethe editors of RETHINKING MARXISM announce "Marxism and the World<br/>Stage," the fifth in its series of international Gala celebrations of<br/>the Marxian tradition. Marxism continues to inspire rich and diverse<br/>analyses and politics across the globe. Within academia, Marxism<br/>provokes new critical insights and excites passion in political<br/>economy, philosophy, anthropology, geography, biology, literature,<br/>languages, sociology, cultural studies, art, and many other<br/>discourses. Beyond the academy, Marxism resonates among those the world<br/>over who are resisting oppression in its myriad forms; it<br/>provides a theoretical grounding for projects that seek social<br/>liberation and justice, international solidarity, and ecological<br/>sanity.<br/><br/>Despite a century of effort by its opponents (and even by some<br/>advocates), Marxism continues to resist containment -- be it<br/>geographic, intellectual or political. Banished from one quarter,<br/>banned from another, Marxism soon emerges and flourishes in many<br/>more. And at a time of deepening international flows and exchanges --<br/>of capital, commodities, weapons, persons, ideas and aspirations --<br/>Marxism is proving its vitality and power as a unifying ground for<br/>those seeking a just and sustainable world.
