Marx's thinking on subjectivity

Marx's thinking about human subjectivity is little discussed in the Portuguese language, and in Brazil in particular it still lacks an ample, explicit and systematic study. The article aims at delineating a more complete reflection on his thinking on human subjectivity, emphasizing not only criticism, but also, and in a special manner, an understanding of the issue starting from an immanent and structurally-based reading of his works in the original. It is also worth noting that this investigation is based on the connection between subjectivity and objectivity, between subject and object, inquiring whether these two concepts contradict themselves within Marx's thought, compromising in this fashion his critical reflections on Hegel's speculative philosophy and the empiricism of classical economy, or whether in fact a connection between the two is a deeply buried secret of Marx's philosophy on human subjectivity.
