Whilst criticising Marx's misreading of Latin American realities, Arico shows countervailing tendencies in Marx's thought, including his appraisal of non-European societies. Arico convincingly argues that Marx's work was not a dogma of linear 'progress', but a living, contradictory body of thought constantly in development. Missing Information?
