Marx’s “Das Kapital (‘Capital’) -- A Critique of
Political Economy
[ send
me this essay ]
This 6 page report discusses Karl Marx (1818-83) and one
of his most important works, “Das Kapital.” Marx’s
fundamental assertion, in the most simple of terms, was
that all events are determined by economic forces. His
analysis of capitalist economy and his theories of
historical materialism, the class struggle, and the
meaning of value evolved as the basis of modern socialist
doctrine. Those ideas are of decisive importance with
respect to revolutionary action, his theories on the
nature of the capitalist state, the road to power, and the
dictatorship of the proletariat. Most of those ideas and
ideals are captured in one of his most famous works “Das
Kapital.” Bibliography lists 6 sources.
