A Patron of Economic Update asks: "I’ve just learned the Prof. Crispin Sartwell intends to publish a book, based on Bakunin, that argues that Marx was an authoritarian who wanted an all-powerful state. This is clearly a misunderstanding of Marx, as SFSU Prof. Ann Robertson pointed out in a 2003 essay on the fundamental philosophical differences between Marx and Bakunin. I would appreciate it if Prof. Wolff could address this charge by Bakunin that Marx was an authoritarian."

"Richard Wolff in his new book examines frightening and anti-democratic configurations of corporate power, offering not only a blueprint for how we got here, but a plan for how we will rescue ourselves and create new models of economic and political justice.” - Chris Hedges
