Abstract

Discussion on Marx as philosopher is not reduced to the question: "What are the main themes and theses of Marx's philosophy?", "What is the essential meaning of his philosophical thought?", "What is the historical value and importance of his philosophical work?". The question "Is Marx a philosopher at all?" still arouses controversy. There is nothing wrong with the question. But this does not mean that every possible answer to it is equally good.
