On Live on the Fly with Randy Credico, Richard Wolff explores Karl Marx’s intellectual development, covering his classical education, exposure to radical thought, and the free-thinking background of his family. Topics include Marx’s synthesis of philosophy and economics, his engagement with thinkers like Hegel and French socialists, and the foundations of his critique of capitalism. Prof. Wolff highlights why revisiting Marx’s ideas is essential for understanding systemic contradictions and the possibilities for social and economic transformation.
