It seems that the ideological debate in Pakistan has come to an end even at the academic level. Hardly any forum, group, intellectual front seems to be where the issues facing the world come under discussion. We have all accepted defeat as soon as the new millennium has begun and we have to get rid of the populist society without getting confused at any level. In order to satisfy and justify ourselves, we are forced to assume many things, for example: capitalism is an absolute 'system' which has immense potential to sustain itself; Revolution always loses, democracy is the only solution, but incomplete solution; The era of ideological talk is no more. In the postmodern age we have to abandon the twentieth century ideals. Etc. etc.
Despite all the ideological inconsistencies of the last two or three decades, all the major arguments are centered on capitalism versus right wing Marxism against liberalism. In the former we try to justify our confusing situation, while in the latter we build the dream of a better world by gaining an understanding of the currents of history.
Marxism continued to be active in the practical field, in addition to offering opinions and philosophical solutions to almost every aspect, including nature, peace, the environment, racism, social welfare, feminism, chauvinism and nationalism. This book Why Marx was Right? Is translated. It compares the views of right and left on ten important topics and teaches us a unique way of seeing and understanding the world.
If you were asked to create a new world or a better imaginary world, which ideals would it be closest to? Would you like to imagine a world full of racism, wars, and class strife, or a world in which social justice, equality, democracy, peace, and the provision of basic necessities are managed?
Thanks to this book, we are forced to rethink such questions as: Are the classes in the world gone? Is democracy the ultimate destination of humanity? Do we destroy nature in the process of conquering it? Is there a way to remedy prejudice and injustice? Is the idea of an imaginary world harmful and tantamount to an escape from reality? And most of all, has ideological thinking become a thing of the past?
(This book is also published by Al-Faisal Publishers. I am sorry that the top five books have been hidden which have been stalled for the last two years. The protesting government employees will then say that I hire others.)
I don't usually talk much about other people's translations. But on this occasion, I must say that all the other translations of Terry Eagleton are unreliable, wrong and very wrong.
According to a survey, 75% of university students (BS level) in Pakistan do not read textbooks at all. Now you tell me, isn't it a matter of wondering what a great shortcoming is taking place in this important place of life. Go away
Nadeem Farooq Paracha Sahib had complained in one of his articles that there are very few students in the University of Peshawar who know or read these people but not everyone else knows their names.
Ustad G. Yasir Jawad, Qazi Jawad, Dr. Mubarak Ali Sahib, Arshad Mahmood ... These are just some of the goal setting shareware that you can use.
Very good translations of these people have been published by Mashal Publications but BS level boys in the university hardly know them. All of them read Qasim Ali Shah, Borya Naqbool Jan and Zalil-ur-Rehman Qamar and the result is that when they start arguing, they start with hatred against Jews and against women and end with it.
