From December 1851 to March 1852 Marx wrote The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Napoleon, a work on the French Revolution of 1848, in which he expanded upon his concepts of historical materialism, class struggle and the dictatorship of the proletariat, advancing the argument that victorious proletariat has to smash the bourgeois state.

Marx expanded upon his ideas about the dictatorship of the proletariat in his short 1875 work, Critique of the Gotha Program, a scathing criticism and attack on the principles laid out in the programme of the German Workers ' Party ( predecessor to the SPD ), a socialist organisation whose policies he thought to be ineffectual.

These processes were first described in The Communist Manifesto ( Marx and Engels, 1848 ) and were expanded in Marx's Grundrisse ( 1857 ) and " Volume IV " ( 1863 ) of Das Kapital.

Marx explicitly developed the notion of critique into the critique of ideology and linked it with the practice of social revolution, as in the famous 11th of his Theses on Feuerbach, " Philosophers have only interpreted the world in certain ways ; the point is to change it.

According to the famous Theses on Feuerbach ( 1845 ), philosophy had to stop " interpreting " the world in endless metaphysical debates, in order to start " changing " the world, as was being done by the rising workers ' movement observed by Engels in England ( Chartist movement ) and by Marx in France and Germany.

Groucho's radio life was not as successful as his life on stage and in film, though historians such as Gerald Nachman and Michael Barson suggest that, in the case of the single-season Flywheel, Shyster, and Flywheel ( 1932 ), the failure may have been a combination of a poor time slot and the Marx Brothers ' returning to Hollywood to make another film.

In the mid-1940s, during a depressing lull in his career ( his radio show Blue Ribbon Town had failed, and the Marx Brothers as film performers were well past their prime ), Groucho was scheduled to appear on a radio show with Bob Hope.

Marx identified the production relations of society ( arising on the basis of given productive forces ) as the economic base of society.

The theory shows what Marx called a " coherence " in human history, because each generation inherits the productive forces developed previously and in turn further develops them before passing them on to the next generation.

Marx goes on to illustrate how the same factors can in different historical contexts produce very different results, so that quick and easy generalisations are not really possible.

* Marx, Karl, Theses on Feuerbach, 1845

( critical account which focusses on incoherencies in the thought of Marx, Engels and Lenin )

Marx himself expresses deep critical concerns with this historicist tendency in his Theses on Feuerbach:

For Marx, productive forces refer to the means of production such as the tools, instruments, technology, land, raw materials, and human knowledge and abilities in terms of using these means of production.

" Given the elimination of these pernicious influences, Marx allowed that " normal conditions of spontaneous development " of the rural commune could exist.

All five requests were for each station to broadcast on channel 7 ; Frank Marx, ABC's vice president in charge of engineering, thought at the time that the low-band ( channels 2 through 6 ) TV channels would be reallocated for military use, thus making these five stations broadcasting on VHF channel 7 the lowest on the TV dial and therefore the best channel positions.

Once enough to cover all of these things had been taken out of the " proceeds of labour ", Marx believed that what was left should then be shared out amongst the workers, with each individual getting goods to the equivalent value of how much labour they had invested.

Moreover, in The Ego and its Own ( 1845 ), Max Stirner extends the Feurbach analysis by arguing that even the idea of “ humanity ” is an alienating concept for the individual man and woman to intellectually consider ; Marx and Engels responded to these philosophic propositions in The German Ideology ( 1845 ).

In these theories, surplus product and surplus value are equated, while value and price are identical, but the distribution of the surplus tends to be separated theoretically from its production ; whereas Marx insists that the distribution of wealth is governed by the social conditions in which it is produced, especially by property relations giving entitlement to products, incomes and assets ( see also relations of production ).

Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels reacted against these theories by formulating a secular theory of socialism in The Communist Manifesto.
