Abstract

The article has three parts. The first part examines the problem of Marx‟ use of Hegel‟s concept of negation of negation for the proletarian revolution in the Critique of the Political Economy. The second part discusses Marx‟ critical reception of Hegel‟s concept of the negation of negation in the excursus to the critique of hegelian dialectic and philosophy in general of Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts (= Paris Manuscripts) of 1844, namely in four sections: Firstly it is shown in what Marx follows Feuerbach‟s position and in what he transcends it. Secondly Marx‟ critique on Hegel‟s system concerning the Phenomenology of the Spirit, the Science of Logic and the transition to nature and real philosophy is outlined. The third item discusses Hegel‟s and Marx‟ understanding of negativity, externalisation and alienation and fourthly Marx‟ own position is outlined. The third part suggests an alternative interpretation of the myth of negation of negation of the revolutionary transformation of capitalist society in later Marx.
