I never said it did.  I wish people would stop
equating Marx with Marxism.  The poor soul doesn't
deserve it.

If you intend to say that all things are kind of in
someway interconnected, then sure, I don't disagree
with this.  Totality is a useful notion.  I think the
Marxian critique of political economy can, and must,
be integrated into a wider theory about modernity that
would integrate insights about western rationality,
gender, the construction of racial and national
identity, etc.
