Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844 by Karl Marx (Hardcover)

Description

The “Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844” is a collection of writings by Karl Marx, composed in 1844 but not published until much later. In these manuscripts, Marx explores a range of economic, philosophical, and sociopolitical ideas, laying the groundwork for his later works on capitalism, socialism, and communism.

In the “Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844,” Marx critiques the capitalist system, examining its impact on labor, alienation, and human dignity. He also delves into questions of morality, freedom, and social justice, offering insights into the potential for a more equitable and humane society.

While not as well-known as Marx’s later works such as “Das Kapital” and “The Communist Manifesto,” the “Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844” are considered foundational texts in Marxist theory. They provide valuable insights into Marx’s early thinking and the development of his ideas about economics, politics, and society.
