May 5, 2018, marks the 200th birthday of Karl Marx. The journal tripleC: 
Communication, Capitalism & Critque (http://www.triple-c.at) celebrates 
Marx’s birthday and the critique of capitalism with a special issue, in 
which critical theorists reflect on the relevance of Marx’s works and 
the Marxian critique of capitalism today.

The special issue’s main section will feature a debate between David 
Harvey and Michael Hardt/Toni Negri, who will engage in a dialogue about 
Marx today and the relevance of praxis and Marx’s theory for the 
critique of contemporary capitalism.

We invite the submission of abstracts (max. 250 words) for reflections 
on the following questions:

* How can Marx’s theory help us to understand capitalism today?
* 200 years after Marx's birth, what type of capitalism do we live in 
today? What kind of and what focus of Marxian analysis and praxis do we 
need to analyse and criticise capitalism?
* On which elements of Marx’s theory and the 200-year long history of 
Marxian theory can we today best draw in order to advance radical 
theory, the analysis of capitalism and struggles for alternatives to 
capitalism?

Deadline for abstract submission: November 15, 2017 (250 words, per 
e-mail to Denise Rose Hansen, managing editor of tripleC: 
(d.hansen /at/ triple-c.at), please include a submission title, your name and 
contact, a 100 word short bio, and an abstract of 250 words; send the 
abstract and meta-data in a Word- or text-file [not in a plain e-mail]).

Acceptance decisions: Until approx. November 30, 2017
We aim to include around 10-15 reflections. Naturally, if the number of
