In this book review, the author argues that Terry Eagleton's Why Marx Was Right addresses pertinent questions in relation to the Marxist concept of social class and oppression. In doing so, he shows that Marxism ought to be conceived as a method, if it ought to have any future whatsoever. He concludes that Eagleton's book makes a valuable contribution to lift Marxism from the margins into the mainstream
