Marxism as Humanism

in hegel •  7 years ago 

Nice to see someone who has a handle on the essentials.

The pregnant thought is people making history, but not under conditions of their own choosing and half-blindly. Of freedom in even partial understanding of such constraints and their manipulation not as some special state, but as our own 'natural state' not yet fully realised.

There is some beauty in mental fecundity.

That this holds in the struggle against the constraints of nature and also the constraints of historical society. This seems to me to be the core of its humanism and its final resolution where history is made consciously for-ourselves is to become fully human.

sorry for the rave -- thankyou.
