Marxist Archaeology Today gathers important papers written by archaeologists who utilise the methods of historical materialism, demonstrating not only what Marxism has contributed to archaeology, but also what archaeology has contributed, and can contribute, to Marxism as a method for interpreting the history of humanity.

The book's contributors consider the question of what archaeology can contribute to a historical perspective on the overcoming of present-day capitalism, synthesising developments in world archaeology, and supplying concrete case studies of the archaeology of the Americas, Europe and the Near East.

Contributors are: Guillermo Acosta Ochoa, Marcus Bajema, Bernardo Gandulla, Alex Gonzales-Panta, Pablo Jaruf, Vicente Lull, Savas Michael-Matsas, Rafael Micó, Ianir Milevski, Patricia Pérez Martínez, Cristina Rihuete Herrada, Roberto Risch, Steve Roskams, Henry Tantaleán, Marcelo Vitores, and LouAnn Wurst..

Ianir Milevski is a member of the programme ‘Raíces’, of the Ministry of Science and Technology of Argentina, and Visiting Professor at a number of Argentinian universities. His current research projects include a long-term study of the social formations of the Neolithic, Chalcolithic and Early Bronze periods, a study of burial practices in those periods and a social history of art in the late pre-history of the Levant.
