A rebuttal of the idea of Marx as Eurocentric and a white supremacist.

Abstract: 
--

Excerpt:

This article is not about Marx's biographical adventures and escapades, which in themselves reveal a great deal about his commitment to internationalism. Rather, this contribution is about how Marx thought about and acted the "international." How was the international part of Marx’s theory and practice?

It is also about how Marx's ideas have travelled to South Africa through internationalism, and the contribution South African Marxism has made to anti-racism, including its support for building a powerful anti-apartheid movement.

The third theme in this article is on the current conjuncture and necessity for a renewed internationalism. Finally, this article concludes with possible directions and challenges for 21st century internationalism.
