Karl Marx’s dialetics and the Marxist criticism of law

Abstract

The article seeks to understand in depth the peculiarities of Karl Marx’s materialistic dialectic, as opposed to the idealistic, Hegelian dialectic. Grounded in Capital, it highlights the absence of more accurate methodological concerns within the Marxist critique of law, which leads to the adoption of discrepant and contradictory premises, methods and viewpoints. The conclusions indicate the urgency of the debate on the Marxian-dialectical method and the importance of its rigorous incorporation into the Marxist critique of law.

Keywords:
Marxism and law; Dialectics of Karl Marx; Evgeny Pashukanis
