Œuvres
Le travail aliéné – avec une critique de la dialectique de Hegel ; écrits en 1844, publiés pour la première fois en 1932.
Les philosophes n’ont fait qu’interpréter le monde de diverses manières ; il s’agit de le transformer – noté en 1845, publié par Engels en 1888.
Un spectre hante l’Europe.
- 1867Le Capital
Marchandise, plus-value, accumulation – les lois du mouvement de la société capitaliste.
Position
Marx retourna la dialectique de Hegel « de la tête sur les pieds » : l’histoire est mue non par l’esprit, mais par la production matérielle et les conflits qu’elle engendre. Toute société repose sur une base économique – forces et rapports de production – sur laquelle s’édifient le droit, la politique et l’idéologie. Sous le capitalisme, les travailleurs vendent leur force de travail ; la plus-value qu’ils produisent au-delà de leur salaire devient profit, et leur travail leur devient étranger. La lutte des classes, les crises et la concentration du capital conduiraient, soutenait-il, à terme à une société sans classes. Sa thèse célèbre : les philosophes n’ont fait qu’interpréter le monde ; il s’agit de le transformer. Son œuvre a marqué la politique et les sciences sociales bien au-delà du marxisme.
Vie et contexte
Né à Trèves, Marx étudia le droit et la philosophie à Bonn et à Berlin, rejoignit les jeunes hégéliens et dirigea un journal libéral jusqu’à son interdiction. À Paris, il noua son partenariat de toute une vie avec Engels. Après les révolutions de 1848, il vécut en exil à Londres, souvent dans la pauvreté, étudiant l’économie au British Museum et contribuant à diriger la Première Internationale.
