While there recently has been renewed interest in Marx, we cannot simply apply his more than 170-year-old texts to today's world. Capitalism, after all, has not only taken on new shapes, in the context of the climate crisis, mass incarceration, and global migration; it has also intensified its exploitation of racialised and feminised workers, while finding new ways of co-opting them. Across the disciplinary boundaries of philosophy, literary and cultural studies, this volume revives Marx's rich conceptual apparatus to shed light on his Black, feminist, trans and queer »others« in order to understand race and gender as part of the capitalist totality, and to strike more fundamentally at the heart of contemporary capitalism.
