On Karl Marx
“In 1968 we celebrated the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the birth of Karl Marx. We still have reason to hope for a concrete celebration in 2018”
This study of Marx serves not only as an excellent introduction to that most influential of “worldly philosophers” but is also a significant resume of the central issues of Bloch’s own profound and wide-ranging thought.
Special attention is given to the political maturation of the young Karl Marx and to his studies and intellectual relationship to important thinkers of his time. Bloch concludes with an insightful summons to the West to consider Marx anew as a thinker still vitally relevant to contemporary social issues, and not merely as the father of a sovietized political system.
