[lbo-talk] Another Marx, another Das Kapital

[Charles Brown]

I thought Communism was dead. Why all this red-baiting from the
bourgeois intelligentisia and politicos ? It's like they have seen a
ghost. This priest conducts an argument talking to Marx ? Marx is dead.

   There is a spectre haunting Europe and America — the spectre of
communism.

>>> "John E. Norem" 
MUNICH, Germany
Coming soon to German bookstores: a new "Das Kapital" from another
Marx.

The author says readers should not expect a defense of communism from 
the book.

Munich's Roman Catholic Archbishop Reinhard Marx says his work is to 
some extent "an argument with Marxism."

Marx wrote the first chapter of his "Das Kapital: A Plea for Humanity"

as a letter to his "dear namesake" — the 19th century ideologist Karl
Marx.

The archbishop writes that "the consequences of your thinking were in 
the end disastrous."

CB: Speak for yourself, "father".

 Marx says he intends with the book to highlight the 
value of Catholic social teaching in a globalized world. 
^^^
CB: Must be a short book.

The book was 
presented Wednesday.
