Marxist Archaeology Today: Historical Materialist Perspectives in Archaeology from America, Europe and the Near East in the 21st Century

Marxist Archaeology Today gathers important papers written by archaeologists who utilise the methods of historical materialism, demonstrating not only what Marxism has contributed to archaeology, but also what archaeology has contributed, and can contribute, to Marxism as a method for interpreting the history of humanity.

The book's contributors consider the question of what archaeology can contribute to a historical perspective on the overcoming of present-day capitalism, synthesising developments in world archaeology, and supplying concrete case studies of the archaeology of the Americas, Europe and the Near East.

Contributors are: Guillermo Acosta Ochoa, Marcus Bajema, Bernardo Gandulla, Alex Gonzales-Panta, Pablo Jaruf, Vicente Lull, Savas Michael-Matsas, Rafael Mic?, Ianir Milevski, Patricia P?rez Mart?nez, Cristina Rihuete Herrada, Roberto Risch, Steve Roskams, Henry Tantale?n, Marcelo Vitores, and LouAnn Wurst..
