Just anecdotally. You can look up people online talking about it. It's basically the same as what's taught in bog-standard mainstream Western economics courses, more or less uniform around the world. (But everybody in China also regardless of their major takes some required Marxism classes.) In reality, China has a mixed economy that's pretty much capitalism plus some other stuff, and while they have a lot of state-owned industries still they basically run according to the same principles as capitalist firms.

Ray Dalio is an interesting example of a billionaire founder of the world's largest hedge fund who has been influenced by (parts of) Marx.

>One of the many wonderful questions raised by Ray Dalio’s work-in-progress Changing World Order: Why Nations Succeed or Fail is whether Dalio, multibillionaire founder of the world’s largest hedge fund, may actually be... a Marxist? I don’t mean that as a comprehensive claim—Dalio is a macroeconomist and self-proclaimed capitalist, so it would be hard to infer what he thinks about, say, the microeconomics in Book I of Das Kapital—but I don’t mean it superficially either. Yes, Dalio’s book eulogizes Marx as “a brilliant man” whose theory of dialectical materialism “sounds right to me,” and yes, Dalio begins one sentence with the helpful heuristic to “Put yourself in Mao’s position,” and yes, Dalio follows that sentence by declaring that “it makes sense why Mao was a Marxist and pursued his version of Marxist policies.” But this is also a book that venerates Paul Volcker and Henry Kissinger and runs from the shadow of political polarization, so, well, I don’t mean to say that Dalio is a Marxist in prescriptive terms.

>Rather, I mean that Dalio is something of a Marxist in diagnostic terms—that is, how he sees history unfolding in response to the contradictions of capitalism.
