Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844 by Karl Marx

Anyone here read this stuff?

I'm about halfway through a translated version.

Fascinating.

Thinking about stuff I never have before.

Also reading:

The Wealth of Nations, by Adam Smith

Anarchism: From Theory to Practice, by Daniel Guerin

A lot of it's a little over my head though...

 

I was just about to start a thread about this...shucks you beat me too it.

 

So, what's your opinion?

 

I was joking sorry... i just noticed 'wealth of nations' 'economic philosophic...'

and i was actualy looking at http://www.bis.org/index.htm
http://www.dti.gov.uk/ http://www.bxa.doc.gov/ http://www.export.gov/iraq/ has nothing (i think) to do with what your talking about ?? . just thinking about money and banks and stuff like that... i watched a programe about their practices during the war..a right ol' boys network .. still trying to understand it all ???.


Sorry.

 

Check it out.​

​

Very interesting.​

​

Anybody else have any thoughts on the subject?​

 

I think Marx was an absolute genius.

 

Awesome..

I was going to buy a book similar to what you're talking about, although I can't remember that name, it's about Marx's philosophies.
But, yes I think Marx had some great ideas and some of the concepts really are quite fascinating when you start thinking about them.

 

I did ,well i tried ..over my head by about a mile but ...

I have always thought that..i thought it was my own unique thought hahahaha oh well

I will keep reading..your right it is intresting...

I only posted my first thought because subjects like this get overlooked .... because sex/iraq/hippies etc etc get on the top of the hip forum list...mmm well possibly i just tend too look at the current posts a little bit too much and don't dig more..but anyway i just wanted it to be kept nearer the top of

To be honest i try and make my own philosophy ... call it arrogance if you wish hahahahaha *sigh*.

 

I recall someone trying to prove that Marx wasnt even a philosoper. it was fun.
