Paul Mattick
1904-1981
“Marxism signifies neither more nor less than the destruction of capitalism. Even as a scientific discipline it offers nothing to the bourgeoisie. And yet, as an alternative to the discredited bourgeois social theory, it may serve the latter by providing it with some ideas useful for its rejuvenation.” Marxism: Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow
