The Social and Political Thought of Karl Marx

Front Cover
4 Reviews
Cambridge University Press, 1968 - Philosophy - 268 pages
Ever since the discovery of Marx's Early Writings, most of the literature concerned with Marx's intellectual development has centred around the so-called gap between the 'young' Marx, who was considered to be a humanist thinker, and the 'older' Marx, who was held to be a determinist with little concern for anything outside his narrow theory of historical materialism.
