An Attempt to Reassess Karl Marx’s Theoretical Merit

Abstract

The article attempts to appreciate the theoretical merit of Karl Marx in different areas of scientific knowledge. The real and attributed errors are analyzed in detail. The merit of Marx consists first of all in a comprehensive study of the laws of the formation of the capitalist mode of production, the discovery of deep contradictions in its functioning and development. “Marx is back” – report today many economists, philosophers, sociologists, politicians, and it means that we must reread the theoretical heritage of Marx and especially his titanic “Kapital”.

Keywords
