	DIALECTICAL MARXISM: The Writings of Bertell Ollman
		Marx divides the communist future, as I've indicated, into halves, a first stage, or socialism, which is often referred to as the "dictatorship of the proletariat", and a second stage that is also called "full communism".
		Marx, however, apparently believed that the economic and social measures introduced by the new regime would be sufficient to transform most capitalists, and that physical violence would only be used against those who resorted to violence themselves.
		Marx's defense of the Commune's program of frequent elections for all government functionaries—mandated instructions from their constituents, and their easy recall whenever they prove unworthy reflect his belief that people of all classes recognize or—in the absence of capitalist brain washing techniques—can easily be made to recognize their interests and to act upon them.

		In Marx's reaction to Hegel, these two idealist poles are replaced with materialist (materialist: Someone who thinks that nothing exists but physical matter) categories: spiritual ignorance becomes alienation, and the transcendent end of history becomes man's realisation of his species-being (i.e., our triumph over alienation; the establishment of an objectively better society).

	Divergence Between Marx and Bakunins Revolutionary Strategy : Thunderbay IMC
		Marx argued that the circulation of commodities is the starting point of capital2, as the production of commodities, their circulation, and the developed form of circulation called commerce, form the historical groundwork from which it arises.3 Marx argues that the origin of capital is manifested in money and the behavior of the capitalist class.
		Marx identifies a twofold origin of manufacture, firstly, manufacture can be a combination of individuals with differing handicrafts in one place, or, secondly, manufacture can be a combination of individuals with the same handicrafts in one place.28 Marx describes the first process of manufacture through the example of carriage making.
		Marx and Engels argued that for a thriving socialist revolution there must initially occur the elevation of the proletariat to the position of ruling class, the establishment of the state under the leadership of the working class, the dictatorship of the proletariat.

		For Marx, this is a natural capacity for a physical activity, but it is intimately tied to the human mind and human imagination::A spider conducts operations that resemble those of a weaver, and a bee puts to shame many an architect in the construction of her cells.
		Marx understood that during such a crisis the price of labor would also fall, and eventually make possible the investment in new technologies and the growth of new sectors of the economy.Marx believed that this cycle of growth, collapse, and growth would be punctuated by increasingly severe crises.
		Marx points out that the bourgeois notion of freedom is predicated on choice (in politics, through elections; in the economy, through the market), but that this form of freedom is anti-social and alienating.

	'Marx's Humanism Today'. Raya Dunayevskaya
		Were Marx to return to earth, he would have no difficulty whatever in recognizing in its new form — the State Plan and its fetishism — the state capitalist development he predicted as the ultimate effect of the inexorable laws of capitalist development.
		Marx created special economic categories not only to expound his theory of value and surplus-value, but also to show how degraded human relations were at the point of production itself.
		Marx anticipated the impasse of modern science when he wrote in 1844: “To have one basis for life and another for science is a priori a lie.” We have been living this lie for one hundred and twenty years.

	The Logic of Marx's Capital, Replies to Hegelian Criticisms
		Hegel's Phenomenology is most important for an understanding of the theory of alienation in the 1844 Manuscripts; the theory of history found in the German Ideology is defined in opposition to Hegel's unpublished lectures on the Philosophy of History, and so on.
		In the next chapter we shall discuss both where Marx was mistaken in his estimation of Hegel's idealism and the senses in which seeing Hegel as an idealist is justified.
		The transition to the state thus is a logical one accomplished in the process of thought rather than in a real historical process, although it is claimed that this reconstruction of sociopolitical categories begins with an appropriation of the real process and culminates with a grasp of the inner nature of that real process.

		Unfortunately, his promised book on method was never written, so that readers wishing to understand and evaluate Marx's theories, or to revise or use them, have had to proceed without a clear grasp of the dialectic in which the theories are framed.
		In putting Marx's philosophy of internal relations and his use of the process of abstraction--two little-studied aspects of dialectics--at the center of this account, Ollman provides a version of Marx's method that is at once systematic, scholarly, clear and eminently useful.
		Ollman not only sheds important new light on what Marx really meant in his varied theoretical pronouncements, but in carefully laying out the steps in Marx's method makes it possible for a reader to put the dialectic to work in his or her own research.

		To use one of Marx's earlier ideas (connected to alienation) the effect that capitalist behaviour exerts upon peoples natures will prevent them ever voting to change the system until after it has already been changed without them realising it.
		Many things have altered since Marx's time and it simply is not realistic to see the type of revolution he predicted as happening.
		Marx was not a gid, he was a man, and he got this bit wrong because he could not foresee the future.

		You could aruge I suppose he didn;t hae a concept of human anture and saw humans as constructed through the varous epochs he describes feudal etc. However this points to the teleological spect of his work which thereofre indicates tht he reckoned that a telos could be found and thereofre the realistiaon of human nature.
