The book explores the relevance of Marxism in analyzing modern capitalism, particularly in the context of the emerging "lean production" model. This model emphasizes knowledge work, mass customization tailored to consumer preferences, and the collaboration among firms within extensive production and distribution networks. Through this lens, the author argues for the enduring significance of Marxist theory in understanding contemporary economic dynamics.
