We'll continue our series with a presentation on Historical Materialism, Marx's studies of the inevitable and constant change of the physical world and how and why social systems become outdated and are replaced. In the approximate century and a half, since the birth of Marxism, its definition has been watered down by many, so that it's relationship to the real class struggle has disappeared. But Marxism isn't an academic exercise - it's a science for understanding and - at the same time - accomplishing the liberation of the working class and all of those who are most oppressed by the exploitative system of capitalism.
