Where do the obsessions of the present come from? Where did the modern idea of Social Justice come from? Will pronouns save the world? And why do those who speak of common sense seem neither common nor sensible? From Ulysses to Hiro Onoda, this book unveils the origins of modern culture, exposing its irrational excesses and how its obsession with conflict has resurrected some of the worst authoritarian instincts of the last century.

In Zombies of Marx: The Return of Practical Reason, Davide Smith Borrelli embarks on a provocative journey through the intertwined legacies of Marxism, postmodernism, and deconstruction. With a bold stance, he exposes the philosophical and cultural shifts that have turned a revolutionary ideal into an "army of walking dead" intellectuals, prophets of irrationalism.

This book challenges the self-proclaimed moral authority of academia and its descent into a culture of hysteria, identity politics, and pseudoscientific dogmas. With sharp wit and unwavering honesty, Borrelli critiques the spread of Deconstructed Social Justice, a movement that has replaced rigorous inquiry with moralistic fanfare and nostalgic fantasies of a lost utopia.

Drawing inspiration from Derrida’s Specters of Marx, Borrelli traces the genealogy of contemporary intellectual activism: from the collapse of Soviet communism to the rise of ethical fanaticism in the West. He analyzes how academia’s obsession with power and authority has polarized public debate, undermining the value of individual freedom.

At once a polemical critique and a call to action, Zombies of Marx urges readers to reconsider the role of intellectuals in society and to rediscover the true purpose of knowledge: not to manipulate, but to enlighten.

For those unafraid to challenge dogmas—whether Marxist, postmodern, or otherwise—this book is a bold exploration of the conflicts shaping the modern world.

Are you ready to confront the walking dead of thought?
