The slogan 'Marxism is dead' was proclaimed almost immediately after the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991. Very soon after, a strange ideological inversion occurred. In place of the 'inevitable victory of the proletariat' espoused by Marx, there was the 'inevitable process of globalisation', a line now adopted by corporations, politicians and the media the world over. John McMurtry unravels the moral contradictions inherent in this 'new world order', and argues that it cannot succeed because it is based on essentially inhuman values. Connecting across a broad spectrum of issues including the Iraq and Balkan wars, the Asian and Russian meltdowns, ecological collapse, the privatisation and deregulation of public institutions, and the principles of technology, neo-classical and Marxian economics, McMurtry's compelling study lays bare the battle lines of an emerging global ethical war.
