Against Marxism: Why I am not a Marxist
Abstract
This paper is a brief critique of some of the important points of Karl Marx’s economic theory, and a critique of what we can call ‘Marxism’ as the tradition that sprang after him. Dealing with both Scientific Marxism and Critical Marxism, I attempt to show the limits of these systems, as well as explain why I personally am not committed to the ideology, and the consequences of being in such an ideology.
