Why we are Marxists Capitalism is in its deepest crisis in its history. It is an economic, social and political crisis, which is now expressing itself in political turmoil and growing class struggle across the globe.

These "economic singularities", as Adam Booth discusses, demonstrate clearly that the system has broken."
