The Partially Examined Life Philosophy Podcast
Alienation, Labor, and Capitalism: A Marxist Perspective
This chapter explores the intricate connections between alienation, labor, and economic structures, arguing that alienation predates capitalism and is not solely its byproduct. It critiques historical economic theories, particularly those of Marx, and examines how labor can be both a source of alienation and self-awareness. The discussion also touches on the philosophical dimensions of these concepts, questioning the effects of private property and the nature of work within different economic systems.
