I normally let my ADHD get the best of me and skip the introductory fluff of books, but if you're reading this one, definitely don't skip the forwards and introductions. It's a lot of extra work, but it's worth it.

I liked his comments on dialectical materialism.

Is the translator actually sympathetic to Marxism?

I would assume, given the undertaking, but you never know.

[–] spectre@hexbear.net 12 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I have a copy where the author just talks about how "most of marx's theories have proven until but it's still good to learn about them since they are influential" or something along those lines

"untrue" maybe? Would be nice if they clarified.

[–] anarchoilluminati@hexbear.net 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Yeah, seems like "untrue" is the likely the word they meant but maybe got autocorrected into "until".

[–] spectre@hexbear.net 3 points 3 days ago

You both got it

I think the translator is; he mentions in his own foreword that comes after this one that he was a student of Marx before he started learning German.
