    A cultural documentary that uses some of the central ideas of 19th century German socialist and philosopher Karl Marx to try to make sense of the global financial crisis of 2008-09.

Or is there another explanation as to why it happened and its likely effects on our society, our economy and our whole way of life?Read More »
