Critique of the Gotha programme
Book • 1875
In this critique, Marx addresses several key issues including the dictatorship of the proletariat, the period of transition from capitalism to communism, and the two phases of communist society.
He criticizes the Gotha Programme for its adherence to Lassallean ideas, its failure to address labor compensation and wealth distribution properly, and its concept of a 'free state' which Marx sees as contradictory.
Marx also discusses the principle of 'from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs' and argues that in a socialist society, individuals should be paid based on their labor, not their needs.
The document is a central text in Marxist theory and continues to influence discussions on socialism and communism.
