To work those critics and eventual insufficiencies, a study of the Marx and Engels' texts about non-European themes is made necessary. Varied and numerous writings, those questions being thought during all life, from the investigation about the pre-capitalists social forms and the factors of the social evolution in The German ideology in 1845-1846 to the Ethnological notebooks of Marx in 1880-1882, passing by the in-countless letters, commentaries and articles on which Marx and Engels analyze concrete situations about India, Ireland, China, United States, among others.
