MARX MARX RELOADED<br />
RELOADED<br />
By Jason Barker<br />
MARX RELOADED is a cultural<br />
documentary that examines the relevance<br />
of German socialist and philosopher Karl<br />
Marx's ideas for understanding the global<br />
economic and financial crisis.<br />
The recent crisis triggered the deepest<br />
global recession in 70 years and prompted<br />
the US government to spend more than 1<br />
trillion dollars in order to rescue its banking<br />
system from collapse. Today the full<br />
implications of the crisis in Europe and<br />
around the world still remain unclear.<br />
Nevertheless, should we accept the crisis<br />
as an unfortunate side-effect of the free<br />
market? Or is there another explanation<br />
as to why it happened and its likely effects<br />
on our society, our economy and our<br />
whole way of life?<br />
Today a new generation of philosophers,<br />
artists and political activists are returning<br />
to Marx's ideas in order to try to make<br />
sense of the crisis and to consider whether<br />
a world without or beyond capitalism is<br />
possible. Is the severity of the ongoing<br />
recession a sign that the capitalist<br />
system's days are numbered? Ironically,<br />
20 years after the fall of the Berlin Wall,<br />
could it be that <strong>com</strong>munism might provide<br />
the solution to the growing economic and<br />
environmental challenges facing the<br />
planet?<br />
Written and directed by Jason Barker –<br />
himself an experienced writer, lecturer,<br />
translator and doctor of philosophy –<br />
MARX RELOADED includes interviews<br />
with leading thinkers on Marxism,<br />
including those at the forefront of a<br />
popular revival in Marxist and <strong>com</strong>munist<br />
ideas. The film also includes interviews<br />
with leading skeptics of this revival as well<br />
as light-hearted animation sequences<br />
which follow Marx's adventures through<br />
the matrix of his own ideas.<br />
Interviews with leading experts include:<br />
Norbert Bolz, Micha Brumlik, John Gray,<br />
Michael Hardt, Antonio Negri, Nina Power,<br />
Jacques Ranciere, Peter Sloterdijk,<br />
Alberto Toscano, and Slavoj Zizek.<br />
