Index -- .Reviews‘Whatever its flaws, Marxism is not and never was Eurocentric. That is Simin Fadaee’s refreshing and bold thesis. She advances it first by showing how Marx himself was far from Eurocentric and second by showing how a Marxist tradition was born from wrestling with the anomalies and contradictions found in Marx’s writings. This tradition spread across the globe through such extraordinary figures as Fanon, Guevara, Shariati, Ho Chi Minh and Mao. Global Marxism is a long overdue and magisterial correction to the provinciality of much decolonisation theory.’ Michael Burawoy, author of Public Sociology: Between Utopia and Anti-utopia ‘Global Marxism is an excellent intellectual testament to Marxism as a theory that has travelled, transversed and been translated into a potent weapon of revolutionary force for liberation across the modern world. An elegant and fantastic academic gift indeed.’ Sabelo J. Ndlovu-Gatsheni, author of Beyond the Coloniality of Internationalism -- .
