Pre-Capitalist Socio-Economic Formations: A Collection
Автор:Marx Engels Год: 1979 Издание:Прогресс Страниц: 612 ISBN: [не указан] History, as a branch of knowledge, began in remote antiquity; but it did not become a science in the true sense of the word until comparatively recently, that is, during the 1840s, when the objective nature of the laws governing the historical process was ascertained and the material nature of the motive forces of history was understood. The credit for discovering the materialist conception of history belongs to Marx and Engels, and it was not a sudden moment of illumination or chance find. It was the result of a highly intensive, even explosive process. Three years were to pass between the birth of the new world outlook in 1843 and its first comprehensive formulation in a joint work by Marx and Engels, The Getman Ideology. Since then, the Marxist world outlook has steadily developed further, achieving ever greater depth and maturity.
