Über dieses E-Book
In "Anti-Duhring," Friedrich Engels presents a rigorous critique of the philosophical and economic ideas posited by Eugen Dühring, marking a pivotal moment in socialist literature. Engels employs a dialectical materialist framework, blending clear exposition with forceful polemic, addressing complex themes such as historical materialism, socialism, and the nature of capitalism. This text is both a defense of Marxist theory and a comprehensive toolkit for understanding the scientific foundations of socialism, elucidating the mechanisms by which societal progress can occur through revolutionary transformation. Friedrich Engels, a German philosopher and social scientist, co-authored several foundational texts of Marxism alongside Karl Marx. His personal experiences in the industrial revolution, alongside a fellowship with Marx that emphasized mutual critique of prevailing economic and philosophical ideas, profoundly influenced his perspective. Engels's engagement with Dühring, who represented a reactionary trend in socialist thought, catalyzed his efforts to clarify and fortify Marxist doctrine against contemporary misinterpretations. "Anti-Duhring" is essential reading for anyone interested in the intellectual roots of socialist theory and its scientific principles. Engels articulates complex ideas with precision, making this work accessible yet deeply enriching. Scholars, students, and those intrigued by the dynamics of societal change will find profound insights that resonate with contemporary political discourse.
Autoren-Profil
Friedrich Engels (1820–1895) was a German philosopher, social scientist, journalist, and businessman who became famous for his revolutionary theory and works on communism alongside his comrade and friend Karl Marx. Engels was a co-founder of the Marxist theory and a key figure in the development of scientific socialism. Born in Barmen, Prussia, Engels grew up in a family of wealthy textiles manufacturers but diverged from his background to pursue a fervent interest in the plight of the working class. His observation of the condition of workers in England culminated in one of his early and notable works, 'The Condition of the Working Class in England' (1845). Engels and Marx together authored 'The Communist Manifesto' (1848), a seminal text of modern communism. In 'Landmarks of Scientific Socialism: "Anti-Dühring"' (1878), Engels aims to refute the ideas of Eugen Dühring, a socialist thinker who opposed Marxist views at the time. This work is significant for detailing a comprehensive exposition of Marxist theory, including philosophy, political economy, and socialism, and is often regarded as one of Engels's most important contributions to Marxist literature. Engels's writing and thought have been highly influential in the formulation of Marxist doctrine, instrumental in developing a systematic approach towards historical materialism and the critique of capitalist society. His scholarly style is characterized by an incisive analysis of economic and social history, integrated with a belief in the progression towards a more equitable society through socialism.
