Abstract: The presented paper is a polemical contribution on the topic of ‚forgetting‘ Marx, which Slovak philosopher František Novosád discusses in his work of the same title (Zabudnúť na Marxa). Yet, can we bid farewell to Marx? Contrary to the positive answer to this question by the author of the book Forgetting Marx, the paper claims that, rather than forgetting, there is every reason to revise Marx. Marx keeps returning to the intellectual arena because we are still faced with the same problems that he attempted to solve. Today‘s world, which is capitalist in nature, cannot be understood without Marx‘s work. So far, there has not been a more comprehensive or exact scientific methodology for analysing and understanding the contemporary world than historical materialism. To ‚forget‘ Marx would thus be inappropriate, misleading and calculated.
