FINLAND: READING MARX'S WORK
In the Finnish city of Pori, works of Karl Marx were read aloud at the market square.
Juha-Pekka Vaisanen, chairman of Finnish Communist Party, told the shoppers that neoliberal economic policies have decisively contributed to the "resurrection" of Marx as a popular phenomenon.
Vaisanen has been touring Finland this spring giving public readings of Karl Marx.
In his address in Pori, Vaisanen referred to Chinese leader's suggestion that reading of Marx could become a habit.
Vaisanen underlined that Marx is not only relevant for the economists, but for everyone at a time "when the robots may snatch your job", and "the robots do not need social security".
Finnish Communist Party has recently published again in Finnish language parts of Das Kapital, the masterpiece of Marx.
"Students told us that the books were in libraries but sold out in stores for decades," Vaisanen said.
