Marx's Resurrection of Aristotle

Viac o knihe

The book argues that Karl Marx's vision of communism is rooted in Aristotle's classical humanist philosophy, countering the traditional materialist interpretations shaped by Engels. It critiques Engels' portrayal of communism as mere economic egalitarianism, instead highlighting Marx's commitment to Aristotelian "distributive justice" and proportionate equality. The analysis covers Marx's intellectual journey, from his early academic work to his later philosophical developments, offering a fresh perspective on his ideas and their implications for understanding communism.
