In Defence of Marxism Issue 35

The International Marxist Tendency proudly presents the relaunched In Defence of Marxism theoretical journal.

In this issue:
In the new issue #35, Josh Holroyd and Laurie O’Connel look at the origins of class society; analysing the development of the earliest class societies, we can begin to understand the material basis for the oppressive class relations that still exist under capitalism, such as exploitation, the state and inequality (The Origins of Class Society). Lastly, Alan Woods exposes the idea that history is a random series of events or accidents, revealing clear patterns of development going back to the earliest days of human society (Civilisation, Barbarism, and the Marxist view of History).
