If you want something up to date also look see Richard D. Wolff  on youtube. He also has books

[Milos Uzelac]

@Husseinisdoingfine Great job listing and categorising these works in adequate scientific disciplines. I am just dipping my toe with Lenin's Imperialism the last stage of Capitalism for a Marxist literary online reading club I joined.

Thanks for the comprehensive work referencing and categorising post! 

@NoN-RaTiOnAL I would also add the works that @Nak Khid reccomendended from Rick Wolff, as basic contemporary introductions to Marxism and Socialist variations in ideas generally through history and today etc. 

1.Understanding Marxism by Richard Wolff from 2018

2. Understanding Socialism by Richard Wolff from 2019

You can find these books in pdf form by typing them in the libgen.org free library archive. 

Best of luck in starting out in this field, such as myself?

Note: Don't get to ideological Marxism is first and foremost a scientific objective approach on predicting how economic movements and trends will impact, influence and shape future social and political events and trends and how will they possible look like and play out given the underlying economic circumstances.
