Contribution to the study of Karl Marx’s technological thought
Abstract
At the beginning of 1845, Marx (1818-1883) started the studies that led him to develop and mature his technological thinking, focusing on it in 1851 and maintaining this interest in 1860. In these early studies, Marx used sources and a German bibliography, in particular: the writings of J. Beckmann (1739-1811) and J. H. M. von Poppe (1776-1854). In this article, we will study the main influences that Marx received from the aforementioned authors, from their works published in the first half of the 19th century, when the Industrial Revolution in England was in full swing.
