A crítica à filosofia especulativa nos manuscritos econômico-filosóficos de Karl Marx

Abstract

This text intends to show how Marx, in Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844, sought to move away from his master Hegel, to explain the limits of his speculative philosophy. Special emphasis is given to overcoming the philosophical conception of nature, presented by the “old philosopher”, as a consciousness alienated being, as a supersensible being inaccessible to knowledge. Marx, on the contrary, starts from the sensitive activity of the being interacting in society, to recognize the precedence of nature in relation to the being and its importance in the realization process and also the alienation of human sociability.
