This article briefly examines Marx's profound contribution in the political-economic thought. It provides the historical foundations of Marxian economic thought based on the contemporary situation as well as the state of economic thought at that time. Lastly, it discusses the volumes of Marx's contribution, as well as subsequent contributions and debates from Marxian economists, which remains relevant to the present generation and contemporary challenges.

This is an overview of (possibly transformative) proposals to address the economic consequences of the corona crisis 2020 Level: beginner Overview of proposals to combat the economic consequences of the Corona crisis Hannes Böhm, Anne Löscher & Jorim Gerrard Exploring Economics This essay draws on several analyses on the gender impact of the recession and of austerity policies, in which authors acknowledge a threat to women’s labour market integration and a potential backlash to traditional gender labour structures. We contribute to that literature by asking whether recession and austerity convey a gender effect on educational attainment. Our aim in this essay is to portray the likely effects of austerity measures on gender equality with a focus on women’s participation in tertiary education and to hypothesize the implications of these scenarios for labour market effects, to be tested in future empirical research. 2017 Level: beginner The impact of Austerity on Gender in Tertiary Education: A Theoretical Analysis Zeynep M.
