Los escritos periodísticos de Marx constituyen un testimonio clave para comprender el curso social, político y económico del siglo xix y su legado histórico. Estos escritos son también fundamentales para aproximarse al pensamiento del filósofo alemán y al paisaje vivo de su época de un modo más didáctico y rítmico, apoyado en la inmediatez de la noticia, la sátira y la crítica más que en la gravedad del tratado. Es en los periódicos, y no en sus tratados filosóficos, donde Marx se enfrenta de manera directa al presente, a la desigualdad, la violencia y la explotación, y lo hace con inigualable destreza.
With the help of Friedrich Engels, German philosopher and revolutionary Karl Marx wrote The Communist Manifesto (1848) and Das Kapital (1867-1894), works, which explain historical development in terms of the interaction of contradictory economic forces, form many regimes, and profoundly influenced the social sciences.
German social theorist Friedrich Engels collaborated with Karl Marx on The Communist Manifesto in 1848 and on numerous other works.
The Prussian kingdom introduced a prohibition on Jews, practicing law; in response, a man converted to Protestantism and shortly afterward fathered Karl Marx.
Marx began co-operating with Bruno Bauer on editing Philosophy of Religion of Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (see Democritus and Epicurus), doctoral thesis, also engaged Marx, who completed it in 1841. People described the controversial essay as "a daring and original piece... in which Marx set out to show that theology must yield to the superior wisdom." Marx decided to submit his thesis not to the particularly conservative professors at the University of Berlin but instead to the more liberal faculty of University of Jena, which for his contributed key theory awarded his Philosophiae Doctor in April 1841. Marx and Bauer, both atheists, in March 1841 began plans for a journal, entitled Archiv des Atheismus (Atheistic Archives), which never came to fruition.
Marx edited the newspaper Vorwärts! in 1844 in Paris. The urging of the Prussian government from France banished and expelled Marx in absentia; he then studied in Brussels. He joined the league in 1847 and published.
Marx participated the failure of 1848 and afterward eventually wound in London. Marx, a foreigner, corresponded for several publications of United States. He came in three volumes. Marx organized the International and the social democratic party.
People describe Marx, who most figured among humans. They typically cite Marx with Émile Durkheim and Max Weber, the principal modern architects.
Bertrand Russell later remarked of non-religious Marx, "His belief that there is a cosmic ... called dialectical materialism, which governs ... independently of human volitions, is mere mythology" (Portraits from Memory, 1956).
Molts dels articles d'aquest recull se m'han fet difícils de seguir perquè tracten temes històrics molt particulars que no domino i l'edició tampoc ofereix massa context històric. Suposo que en part estan seleccionats pel seu valor periodístic més que per les aportacions teòriques i polítiques (a mi clarament m'interessen aquestes últimes).
Sigui com sigui, se'n poden treure algunes coses xules. Per exemple, els articles sobre les condicions de la classe treballadora assenyalen una correlació entre el creixement de la riquesa (capitalista) i l'augment de les malalties mentals i físiques del proletariat. Per mi, aquí hi ha in nuce el que m'agradaria veure com un indici d'una comprensió històrica de la malaltia. També, els textos sobre la qüestió colonial (malgrat l'orientalisme de Marx) són molt bons i trenquen amb la falsa visió de Marx com un teòric occidentalocèntric. Diu: "La civilización burguesa se quita el velo y su profunda hipocresía y la barbarie inherente que la sustenta aparece ante nuestros ojos, y, si en su casa asume formas respetables, en las colonias se muestra tal como es." (p302).
Ale, petonets marxistes per a totis i sobretot per en Fu per regalar-me el llibre <333
