This collection investigates the current state of play in studies informed by Marxism. It includes a magisterial essay on state theory by Bob Jessop, a discussion of fundamental socialist values using analytical Marxism by Alan Carling, an introduction to Fromm's humanist Marxism by Lawrence Wilde, and provocative pieces on Marxism and ecology, Marxism and feminism, the debate between Marxists and post-Marxists, the democratic Marxism of Hal Draper, the confrontation between Marxism and Liberalism, and Marxism's place in the history of political thought.

Privatization and policies of economic liberalisation were hailed by many critics as key factors which would help lead Mexico towards a process of deeper democratization at the beginning of the 1980s. Using original research this book demonstrates that privatisation generated new resources which were used for personal benefit and also to lubricate the existing state-labour relationship. The case study at the heart of this book is the single most important privatization both in financial and political terms, the privatization of TELMEX, Mexico's national telecommunications monopoly, which occurred during the Salinas administration (1988-94), and the realities of the so-called democratic 'new unionism' movements led by the telephone workers' union.

This volume focuses on how Russian policy toward Europe (and sometimes, by extension, the West more broadly) has developed since the end of the Cold War and the disintegration of the Soviet Union. It argues that important aspects of cooperation have endured in the relationship despite all the vicissitudes of Russian domestic politics and at a time of flux in the international relations of the European continent. This cooperation has, at times, been fragile and has not prevented some obvious and deep-seated disagreements. It has, however, survived. Indeed, Russia and Europe have increasingly 'routinized' their relationship in a range of formal multilateral institutions.
