Expanded contains a bibliography with extensive source notes, many available on line. Class: (Excerpt) In one period of history the material form of the working class was based on hand work (handicraft). As means of production developed and evolved into more complex tools and machines, a manufacturing class of workers was created, based on the new means of production. The manufacturing workers and all the layers of society intertwined into the “determined system of social production” constituted the social organization of labor.The industrial revolution birthed the industrial working class as a new social organization of labor, replacing the manufacturing working class. The industrial working class is industrial because it deploys productive equipment created based on the technology of the industrial revolution.Today's electronics revolution, with its computers and robotics, birthed the electronic working class replacing the industrial working class. Electronics destroy labor in production, replacing human beings with machinery that duplicates the mental and physical powers of the human. Electronics also destroy marginal cost driving reproduction of things to zero for the individual.Under capitalism, the deployment of robotics shuts out billions of workers from the production process, consigns hundreds of million to life at the margin of bourgeois society and destroys industrialism in all forms. The growing mass of destitute proletarians is a new class and part of the new economy.

Download or read book Marxist Glossary written by L. Harry Gould and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A concise glossary of terms used in Marxist literature, with not just definitions, but frequently with quotes from classic Marxist-Leninist writers further explaining the terms. The ?Marxist Glossary, ? however, is so much larger in size, and so much more definitive and comprehensive in treatment, that we consider it would be incorrect to regard it simply as a second edition of the earlier work, excellent and useful as it was. This ?Marxist Glossary? is really new work. The best way to use this work is, first, to recognize it as being no more than what its title indicates ? a glossary, i.e., a compilation of brief definitions and explanations of words and terms employed by Communist writers. The Glossary will serve as a handy aid to the student of Marxist literature. To regard the Glossary as a substitute for the consistent study of the basic Marxist works ? a sort of ?catechism? to be learned by rote ? would be fatal to any attempt to acquire a real understanding of Communism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WHAT'S INSIDE Capitalism (bourgeois mode of commodity production): Capitalism is private ownership of capital and means of production in a system of production and distribution based on wage labor, competition between the laborers for wages and competition between capitalists. It is commodity production at its highest stage of development where labor appears on the market as a commodity, labor power, to be bought and sold alongside every other commodity. ... Communism: Communism is an economic system where socially necessary means of production are owned in common rather than by individuals and corporations. Communist economy is production and distribution carried based on the principle, from each according to their ability, to each according to their socially necessary needs. Communism and Marxism are not the same. Communism is an economic system. Marxism is the science of society. ... Fascism: Fascism in power, today, in our time, is the open terroristic dictatorship of the corporate state. The corporate state is merger of corporations and the state. Twenty-first century American fascism in power, unlike the fascism of Nazi Germany, is a political response of the ruling class to social revolution and the objectivity of the revolutionary movement of the destitute proletariat (precariat). Fascist dictatorship is the capitalists' solution to polarization - extreme poverty at one pole and extreme wealth and riches at the other pole. The corporate state is the handmaid of speculative finance (capital) . . . . unrestrained by political liberty and the bourgeois democratic state forms of the past two centuries. ...

Download or read book What is Marxism written by Rob Sewell and published by Wellred Books. This book was released on 2015 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this epoch of instability, crisis, war and ever-growing inequality, Marxism is becoming an increasingly attractive proposition to millions of workers and young people around the world. The old mole of revolution, to use Karl Marx’s own phrase, is burrowing deep into the foundations of society. And yet we are repeatedly told that Marxism is either irrelevant, or out-dated, or even dead. Yet, if that were true, why are so many books and articles churned out year-on-year attacking Marxism? Clearly the powers that be are rattled or indeed frightened by these “dead” ideas. So what is this set of ideas that frightens them so much? Marxism – or scientific socialism – is the name given to the body of ideas first worked out by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels more than 150 years ago. In their totality, these ideas provide a fully worked-out theoretical basis for the struggle of the working class to attain a higher form of human society – socialism. This book is aimed specifically at newcomers to Marxism. A bestseller now in its second edition, it comprises introductory pieces on the three component parts of Marxist theory, corresponding broadly to philosophy, social history and economics: dialectical materialism, historical materialism and Marxist economics. Complementing these introductions are key extracts from some of the great works of Marxism written by its most outstanding figures – Marx, Engels, Lenin and Trotsky.
Download or read book Critique of Hegel s Philosophy of Right written by Karl Marx and published by Newcomb Livraria Press. This book was released on with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new 2023 translation of Marx's 1844 "Zur Kritik der Hegelschen Rechtsphilosophie" from the original manuscript. This edition includes a new introduction by the translator and reference materials including a Glossary of Philosophic and Economic Marxist Terminology, an Index of Personalities Associated with Marx and a Timeline of Marx’s Life and Works. This is Volume III in The Complete Works of Karl Marx by NL Press. In "Towards the Critique of Hegel's Philosophy of Right" Marx's argument is that Hegel's political philosophy is an abstraction that fails to take into account the concrete reality of human existence and the class struggles that shape it. He contends that in order to understand the state, civil society, and the concept of alienation, one must take into account the economic relations that underlie it and the material conditions of society. The central argument of Marx's critique is that the state is not a neutral arbiter of justice, but is rather an instrument of class warefare and exploitation. This is a mimicry of Feuerbach’s argument nearly word-for-word. Marx's critique serves to demonstrate the importance of a historical and materialist perspective in understanding the nature of human freedom and morality. It serves as a precursor to his later theories of historical materialism and dialectical materialism, which continue to be influential in the modern world. Marx's critique in this work centers around the idea that Hegel's philosophy is an abstraction that fails to take into account the concrete reality of human existence and the class struggles that shape it.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Karl Marx written by Matt Vidal and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-03-26 with total page 752 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Karl Marx is one of the most influential writers in history. Despite repeated obituaries proclaiming the death of Marxism, in the 21st century Marx's ideas and theories continue to guide vibrant research traditions in sociology, economics, political science, philosophy, history, anthropology, management, economic geography, ecology, literary criticism, and media studies. Due to the exceptionally wide influence and reach of Marxist theory, including over 150 years of historical debates and traditions within Marxism, finding a point of entry can be daunting. The Oxford Handbook of Karl Marx provides an entry point for those new to Marxism. At the same time, its chapters, written by leading Marxist scholars, advance Marxist theory and research. Its coverage is more comprehensive than previous volumes on Marx in terms of both foundational concepts and state-of-the-art empirical research on contemporary social problems. It is also provides equal space to sociologists, economists, and political scientists, with substantial contributions from philosophers, historians, and geographers. The Oxford Handbook of Karl Marx consists of six sections. The first section, Foundations, includes chapters that cover the foundational concepts and theories that constitute the core of Marx's theories of history, society, and political economy. This section demonstrates that the core elements of Marx's political economy of capitalism continue to be defended, elaborated, and applied to empirical social science and covers historical materialism, class, capital, labor, value, crisis, ideology, and alienation. Additional sections include Labor, Class, and Social Divisions; Capitalist States and Spaces; Accumulation, Crisis, and Class Struggle in the Core Countries; Accumulation, Crisis, and Class Struggle in the Peripheral and Semi-Peripheral Countries; and Alternatives to Capitalism.
