Abstract:
The 20 th -century Left built a Marx far away from reality, but the Marx-Engels Gesamtausgabe Project (the Marx and Engels’ complete works) is allowing us to get access to a Marx outside dogma and doctrine. The Moor continues to puzzle us not only with his critical demanding writing, but also with his transdisciplinary, iconoclastic approaches. By means of the questions asked to him by great Latin American thinkers, like Dussel, Hinkelammert, and Bautista, we are discovering a new Marx, unknown for the 20 th- century Marxism and extremely radical and up to date, as it provides us with tools to build a new transmodern post-Western civilizing project.
