The world economic crisis led to the decay of Neo-liberalism and to the ideology crisis in the West. Given these circumstances, the West has been paying more attention to Marxs writings and theories after its previous chilly political reception. Now Marxism fever in the West can no longer be ignored. One can see a strong contrast between the decay of Neo-liberalism and the popularity of Marxism.Today, Marxism has become a main character in Western political life. The emergence of Marxist fever has not been organized but, rather, has been a purely spontaneous development(Pratikriya-in Sanskrit).Had there been no global recession and had Neo-liberalism not decayed, Marxist fever would not have spread so quickly in the West. The revival of Marxist thought shows the inevitable trend of the development of world history. However, we must also be clear: the emergence of Marxist fever does not mean that Neo-liberalism and its leading scholars will give up their position. The struggle [between Marxism and Neo-liberalism and other Capitalist theories] will be long-term, with many ups and downs.
