Marx: Alienation and private property

In this video, philosophy professor Ellie Anderson explains the theory of alienation that Karl Marx develops in his Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844. Professor Anderson also discusses the difference between use value, exchange value, and surplus value, the early Marx's theory of human nature, and wage labor under capitalism.

This video was created for Professor Anderson's Spring 2021 "Continental Thought" course at Pomona College.
