Clip -- "Karl Marx is back. That, at least, is the verdict of
publishers and bookshops in Germany who say that his works are flying
off the shelves."

The rise in his popularity has of course, been put down to the current
economic crisis. "Marx is in fashion again," said Jörn Schütrumpf,
manager of the Berlin publishing house Karl- Dietz which publishes the
works of Marx and Engels in German. "We're seeing a very distinct
increase in demand for his books, a demand which we expect to rise
even more steeply before the year's end."
