Description
Summary:This essay openly questions the new phantom that is going all around the world, called the Marxism-Globalism. The critiques are exposed through the reading of one of the most discussed book in these last years: Empire, written by Richard Hardt y Toni Negri. According to the author of current essay, the difference between Marxism-Leninism and the Marxism-Globalism, is that the first of them brought with it the promise of total security (no properties, no State, no social classes), and the second one brought the dammed promise of total globality (Capitalism Empire), in which we find, in the right hand, the world market spirit, and, in the left hand, the globalities of postmodernism.
