A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Like so many other Marxist publications the present one owes its origin to a special occasion, it arose out of a controversy. The polemic in which I was involved last Autumn with the editors of Vorwarts brought me to touch on the question of their ethical tendencies. What I said, however, on this point was so often misunderstood by one side, and on the other brought me so many requests to give a more thorough and systematic exposition of my ideas onE thics, that I felt constrained to attempt at least to give a short sketch of the development of Ethics on the basis of the materialist conception of history. I take as my starting point, consequently, that materialist philosophy which was founded ,on one side by Marx andE ngels, on the other, though in the same spirit, by Joseph Dietzgen. For the results at which I have arrived I alone am responsible. My original intention only got so far as to write an article for theN eue Zeit on the subject.
