| In this special issue we commemorate an extraordinary event: the twentieth anniversary of RM! The fact that we have reached such a milestone is remarkable in at least three different senses. First, it speaks to the renewed interest in Marxism—to the new-found relevance of Marxian theory for carrying out a “ruthless criticism” of hegemonic ideas and institutions—after the Fall of the Wall, when so many ill-informed scholars and activists had (once again) declared Marxism dead. It also signals the vitality of the project of rethinking Marxism, of rediscovering the nondeterministic moments of the Marxian tradition and of articulating new forms of Marxian discourse. | |
| And, third, it is a testament to the commitment, creativity, and hard work of scores of individuals who, over more than two decades, have come together to edit, produce, and contribute to a journal dedicated to reimagining the prospects for Marxian economic, cultural, and social analysis in the world today. We want to thank all those individuals—members of previous editorial boards (as well as the associate editors and production team) and reviewers, authors and artists, subscribers and readers, the editorial staff and publishers, and the many other people who have given us encouragement and support—for making this project possible. 20-4 Contents Complete Editors' Introduction | |
