Summary: In one form or another, in one way or another, everything that Marx wrote has been under attack from the day it first appeared in print. This has been so, even-especially among those who have considered themselves to be "Marx ists." Marx himself cautioned that his theory was not a "dogma," and those who have considered themselves to be his followers, in every generation, have taken him at his word and have interpreted and reinterpreted him according to what they have considered the needs of their time and situation. They have sought constantly to bring Marx "up to date." But not all "Marxists" have seen current needs in the same way and thus there have developed a variety of "authentic" renderings of "Marx in our time." Such was the case eight decades ago-and such is the case today.
