Back in the early 1970s I had to TA a philosophy course and deal with a lecture on Marx. I only remember flailing around and mumbling some standard cant about Marx. I sure wish I had the insight that DeLong hands me with his three video blogs about Marx. Here is a 20 minute introduction to Marx that is a wonderful starting point to orient yourself toward this 19th century figure. It is a quick "what is important" and "what is bunk" intro to Marx. Oh, and you get an extra treat, DeLong's quirky humour, as an "added extra" with these videos:
