Description
Summary:The author states at the outset that the paper deals with scientific or theoretical Marxism, and not with the extent to which Marxism has found room in the thoughts and deeds of the concrete institutions and organizations like, for instance, the ANC. The discussion starts off with a consideration of the fact that it is not easy nowadays to get away from a wide variety of interpretations of Marx, and he offers a useful schematic division for the historical course of Marx interpretations. Following this there is a consideration of some aspects of a non-Marxist perspective on the South African African economy, which offers a background to a consideration of aspects of a Marxist perspective. He refers to the fact that a long-drawn out debate has gone on between a group of Marxist academics and a variety of non-Marxists, and the struggle in the main has been about the question as to what constitutes the main source of conflict in South Africa, a question which can be reduced to the implications of capitalist development in South Africa.
