Discuss how Marxism is still a relevant theory in the post-Cold War era. Consider recent political or armed struggles that are driven, at least in part, by significant class issues. Why might it be difficult to separate class issues from other issues that also drive political and arms struggles, such as religion, military power, or political oppression and freedom?
What will be an ideal response?
The ideal answer should include:
1. Define Marxism as it exists in the post-Cold War era.
2. Explain how Marxism has remained relevant to the global South, in particular. Students might use as examples the modern political struggles of Marxist leaders in Venezuela, Brazil, and elsewhere.
3. Analyze how the scarcity of capital and extremely poor labor conditions make it difficult to separate class issues from issues such as religion, military power, etc.
4. Offer a concise summary and effective conclusion.
