Are there any modern books which talk about the same/similar contents which are easier/smaller for a beginner to start?

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

These books are fairly accessible and touch on a lot of the same ideas you'd find in seminal works like Das Kapital

  • Profit Pathology and Other Indecencies by Michael Parenti
  • Understanding Marxism, Economics: Marxian Versus Neoclassical, and Understanding Socialism by Richard D. Wolff
  • Super Imperialism and Finance Capitalism and Its Discontents by Michael Hudson
  • Capitalism, Coronavirus and War by Radhika Desai
