The Evolution of Marxism: Ideology and Identity

This chapter investigates the transformation of Marxist ideology from its foundational focus on class struggle to a contemporary emphasis on cultural and identity politics, particularly concerning race and gender issues.

The discussion intertwines historical critiques, personal reflections, and spiritual implications, probing the deeper dimensions of Marxism and its impact on societal narratives.
