See, for example, Jospin's speech to the Congress of the Socialist International, 8 November 1999, in which he invokes Hobsbawm's Age of Extremes (whose French translation was blocked till very recently thanks to the prevailing hostility to Marxism), insists on what is still 'useful' in the Marxist method, and argues: 'We must continue to think capitalism, in order to contest it, master it, and reform it.' http://www.premier-ministre.gouv.fr/PM/DO81199.htm
