Should business schools be required to teach Marxism in the name of intellectual diversity?

Isn’t that a pro-capital bias that doens’t belong in classroom?

    Yeah, but first the class should be required to pray.

    Yes,especially Groucho.

    I understand the business schools teach about business, not about intellectual diversity. Under the label ‘intellectual diversity’ many many things could be included, the schools would have little, if any, time to teach business if they included all of the intellectual diversity topics.

    Don’t go to a business school if you want a diverse liberal education.

    Marxism has about as much place in Business schools as underwater basketweaving does. Keep your philosophical political crap for classes associated with majors that pretty much guarantee failure in the job market.

    No , but honesty and morality might be a nice change.

    Yes, if they want to produce well-rounded graduates. Marx was a significant figure in the history of modern economics.

    I don’t agree with all of his opinions, but I think his concept of dialectical materialism is a useful way of looking at history.

    It’s worth noting the Marx himself was not a Communist at any stage of his life. He in fact said of one group of German socialists (proto-communists), that if _they_ were Marxists, then he wasn’t a Marxist.
