Marxism Texts - The Political Unconscious, by Fredric Jameson (1981)

Jameson's the Big Daddy of Marxist theory these days. The guy's smart and wants you to know it, so don't expect him to just hand his ideas over without a fight. Even reading this introduction of this one, though, will clue you in to some mind-bending stuff on contemporary politics and society.

What do you make of the idea that Marxism is not just more theory among others? Does Jameson make a convincing case for its uniqueness?
