KARL MARX UND DER UNTERGANG DES KAPITALISMUS(KARL MARX AND THE DESTRUCTION OF CAPITALISM)

Book ID/图书代码： 04000017C00004

English Summary/英文概要： Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels have tried to prove in their analytic work that capitalism is inevitably doomed. Instead, the socialist states were the ones to break down, although many recent Marx researchers claim that Marx and Engels were used by these totalitarian and bankrupt states and had nothing to do with their false interpretation of socialism. On the basis of concrete historical developments and empiric insights Hubert Kiesewetter shows that in their eagerness to destroy capitalism, Marx and Engels underestimated its ability to reform itself and to create wealth for all, also for the working class. It seems that for Marx, the destruction of the capitalist system was always more important than the liberation of the working class from exploitation, repression and alienation.
