The Origins of Dialectical Materialism
Jordan, Z.A.
http://marxmyths.org/jordan/article.htmYear Published: 1967 Resource Type: Article Cx Number: CX12505 The myth that Karl Marx formulated a fully worked-out method and philosophical system called “dialectical materialism” is the core claim of Marxism, but it has no basis at all in the writings of Karl Marx and but a slim basis in the writings of Frederick Engels. It is widely recognised now that Marx was not a philosopher and the term “dialectical materialism” was invented after his death. Subject Headings |
