	Paul Lafargue - dKosopedia
		Lafargue became involved in redirecting the trend toward Marxism, an activity that was largely developed under directions from Friedrich Engels, and one that became intertwined with the struggles that both tendencies had at the international level - as the Spanish federation of the International was one of the main pillars of the Anarchist group.
		At the same time, Lafargue took initiative through some of his articles, expressing his own ideas about a radical reduction of the working journey (a concept which was not entirely alien to the original thought of Marx) started to make presence.
		The last activity of Lafargue as Spanish activist was to represent this Marxist minority group in the 1872 Hague Congress which marked the end of First International as unitarian group of all socialists.

	The Right to be Lazy
		The alternative, as Lafargue realised, made a practicable possibility thanks to the development of the forces of production, was for the wages system to be abolished and for both production and consumption to be free within the framework of a propertyless, classless, stateless and moneyless society which he called interchangeably communism or socialism.
		Lafargue's approach to work in a socialist society - that it should be minimised - is only one of two possible socialist approaches to the question.
		Today, Lafargue is known mainly for this particular pamphlet which enjoyed a huge revival in the 1960s and 70s when the capitalistic work ethic came under attack again.

	Paul Lafargue and the Right to be Lazy
		Paul Lafargue was born in Santiago, Cuba, on 16 June 1842.
		The content of Lafargue's internationalism had developed, from a naïve belief in the 1860s that nations were a thing of the past, to his revolutionary claim of the 1880s that nationalism had to be fought.
		Certainly, Paul Lafargue was not a disciplined student, and his natural indolence helps to explain his failure to qualify as a doctor, at least as much as the important distractions that he encountered on the revolutionary left.

		In 1883 Karl Marx's son-in-law, Paul Lafargue, was idling in a relatively luxurious political prison near the Latin Quarter of Paris.

		El Derecho a la Pereza por su estilo irónico y contenido polémico, alcanzó una gran popularidad a finales del siglo XIX entre los partidarios y críticos con el movimiento obrero europeo para más tarde significarse como una de las obras literarias de mayor relevancia de Francia.
		Lafargue defiende que el trabajo es el resultado de una imposición del capitalismo, contrariamente a la idea tradicional de reivindicación obrera y lo contrapone a los derechos de la pereza, más acordes con los instintos de la naturaleza humana, con los que se alcanzarían los derechos al bienestar y la culminación de la revolución social.

	Green Anarchy
		Paul Lafargue, Karl Marx’s flamboyant Cuban-born son-in-law, wrote this devastating essay for a workers’ paper in 1880.
		Largely disowned by the straightlaced “official Left” of later years, The Right To Be Lazy has survived as an underground classic and is today kept in print by our dedicated comrades at the Charles H. Kerr Publishing Company.
		At once a masterpiece of critical theory and of rip-roaring, radical humor, Lafargue’s militant defense of the proletariat’s right to laziness is directed not only against the so-called “right to work” but against the entire slaveholder’s ideology known as the “work ethic.” Contains an excellent introduction by Joseph Jablonski called “

		In 1887, Paul Lafargue, who was Marx's son-in-law, was a candidate for a council seat in a Paris district that contained a zoo.
		Engels claimed that Paul had "one eighth or one twelfth nigger blood." In an April 1887 letter to Paul's wife, Engels wrote, "Being in his quality as a nigger, a degree nearer to the rest of the animal kingdom than the rest of us, he is undoubtedly the most appropriate representative of that district."
		Though few claim him as their own, such as leftists claim Karl Marx, Thomas Carlyle is another unappreciated historical figure.
