The New Hegelians Douglas Moggach Frontmatter More Information Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-85497-9 — The New Hegelians Douglas Moggach Frontmatter More Information The New Hegelians Politics and Philosophy in the Hegelian School The period leading up to the Revolutions of 1848 is a seminal moment in the history of political thought, demarcating the ideological cur- rents and defining the problems of freedom and social cohesion that are among the key issues of modern politics. This anthology offers new research on Hegel’s followers in the 1830s and 1840s. Including essays by well-known philosophers, political scientists, and historians from Europe and North America, it pays special attention to ques- tions of state power, the economy, poverty, and labour, as well as to a range of ideas about freedom. The book examines the political and social thought of Eduard Gans, Ludwig Feuerbach, Max Stirner, Bruno and Edgar Bauer, the young Engels, and Marx. It places them in the context not only of Hegel’s philosophy but also of the Enlight- enment, Kant, the French Revolution, industrialisation, and urban poverty. It also views Marx and Engels in a new light in relation to their contemporaries and interlocutors in the Hegelian school. Douglas Moggach is a professor of political science and philosophy at the University of Ottawa. A recipient of a Woodrow Wilson Fellow- ship, he has held visiting appointments at Clare Hall; King’s College, Cambridge; the University of Toronto; and the Scuola Normale Supe- riore di Pisa. He is the author of The Philosophy and Politics of Bruno Bauer. © in this web service Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-85497-9 — The New Hegelians Douglas Moggach Frontmatter More Information The New Hegelians Politics and Philosophy in the Hegelian School Edited by DOUGLAS MOGGACH University of Ottawa © in this web service Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-85497-9 — The New Hegelians Douglas Moggach Frontmatter More Information 32 Avenue of the Americas, New York ny 10013-2473, usa Cambridge University Press is part of the University of Cambridge.

It originated from a panel on the Hegelian Left organised with Andrew Chitty at the Eighth Conference of the International Society for the Study of European Ideas, Aberystwyth, Wales, in July 2002. Work on the project has been gen- erously supported by grants from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and from the Research Services and the Faculty of Social Science of the University of Ottawa. The volume was completed during my visiting fellowship at the Centre for History and Economics, King’s College, Cambridge. The members and staff of the Centre, in particular Gareth Stedman Jones, Emma Rothschild, Melissa Lane, William O’Reilly, and Inga Huld Markan, provided a hospitable and stimulating environment in which to work. I am grateful to the Provost and Fellows of King’s College for their invitation to spend the academic year 2004–5 as a Senior Associate of the college. Clare Hall, Cambridge, also welcomed me and my family back into the community for another memorable year. The members of the ISSEI panel, and of the extended research net- work that emerged from it, have engaged in fruitful mutual exchanges and discussions over the past few years. Because of other commitments, some of our members were unable to participate in the final volume. I acknowledge in particular the contributions of Charles Barbour, Daniel Brudney, Renato Cristi, and Thomas Kemple. Thanks are due especially to Andrew Chitty, who co-chaired the ISSEI panel with me and who pro- vided detailed commentary on a number of the texts, including my own. Ardis Collins gave valuable editorial guidance at all stages of the process.

I must acknowledge here the enormous contribu- tions of the late Terence Moore, of the Press, to the dissemination of philosophical works, as well as his encouragement of my own research. The three anonymous readers of the manuscript made perceptive crit- icisms and suggestions, even if they were not always followed. As ever, my greatest debts are to my family. It is fitting that this volume is dedi- cated to my children, whose eagerness to embark on another Cambridge adventure made the completion of the project possible. © in this web service Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-85497-9 — The New Hegelians Douglas Moggach Frontmatter More Information Contributors Warren Breckman is an associate professor of modern European intellec- tual and cultural history at the University of Pennsylvania.

Keywords: Friedrich Engels, 200th birthday, anniversary, digital capitalism, Karl Marx Date of Publication: 28 November 2020 CC-BY-NC-ND: Creative Commons License, 2021. 2 Christian Fuchs 1. Friedrich Engels’s Life Friedrich Engels was born on 28 November 1820 in Barmen, a city in North Rhine- Westphalia, Germany, that has since 1929 formed a district of the city Wuppertal. In the early 19th century, Barmen was one of the most important manufacturing centres in the German-speaking world. He was the child of Elisabeth Franziska Mauritia Engels (1797-1873) and Friedrich Engels senior (1796-1860). The Engels family was part of the capitalist class and operated a business in the cotton manufacturing industry, which was one of the most important industries. In 1837, Engels senior created a business partnership with Peter Ermen called Ermen & Engels. The company operated cotton mills in Manchester (Great Britain) and Engelskirchen (Germany). Other than Marx, Engels did not attend university because his father wanted him to join the family business so that Engels junior already at the age of 16 started an ap- prenticeship in commerce.

Marxism and Eschatology Reconsidered Roland Boer Marxism is a secularized Jewish or Christian messianism — how often do we hear that claim? From the time of Nikolai Berdyaev (1937) and Karl Löwith (1949) at least, the claim has grown in authority from countless restatements.1 It has become such a commonplace that as soon as one raises the question of Marxism and religion in a gathering, at least one person will jump at the bait and insist that Marxism is a form of secularized messianism. These proponents argue that Jewish and Christian thought has influenced the Marxist narrative of history, which is but a pale copy of its original: the evils of the present age with its alienation and exploitation (sin) will be overcome by the proletariat (collective redeemer), who will usher in a glorious new age when sin is overcome, the unjust are punished, and the righteous inherit the earth. The argument has served a range of very different purposes since it was first proposed: ammunition in the hands of apostate Marxists like Berdyaev and especially Leszek Kolakowski with his widely influential three-volume work, Main Currents of Marxism;2 a lever to move beyond the perceived inadequacies of Marxism in the hands of Christian theologians eager to assert that theological thought lies at the basis of secular movements like Marxism, however

  • Dialectical Humanism: an Ethic of Self-Actualization
    DIALECTICAL HUMANISM: AN ETHIC OF SELF-ACTUALIZATION BY Hernan David Carrillo Submitted to the graduate degree in Philosophy and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ________________________ Chairperson ________________________ ________________________ ________________________ ________________________ Date defended: ______________ The Dissertation Committee for Hernan David Carrillo certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: DIALECTICAL HUMANISM: AN ETHIC OF SELF-ACTUALIZATION Committee: _____________________________ Chairperson _____________________________ _____________________________ _____________________________ _____________________________ Date approved: _________________________ ii Abstract In the history of western philosophy, few thinkers have managed to generate as much controversy and confusion as Karl Marx. One issue caught in this controversy and mired in confusion the presence of evaluative language in Marx’s ‘later’ works. Critics have seized on its presence, contending that it contradicts his theory of history, rendering his critique of political economy nothing more than proletarian ideology. These criticisms are based on an inconsistency that is only apparent. As this dissertation will demonstrate, Marx is able to consistently and objectively combine evaluation and description in his ‘later’ works because embedded within his dialectical method is an ethic of self-actualization I call Dialectical Humanism. Since so much of the confusion surrounding this issue stems from a failure to adequately contextualize it, Chapter I places Marx’s life and thought in proper perspective. With the overview of the development of Marx’s life and thought complete, Chapter II examines his theory of history to understand how it explains socio-historical phenomena. Chapter III elucidates Marx’s humanism, tracing its development from an explicit to an implicit aspect of his thought.

  • Guide to Further Reading
    Guide to Further Reading The 'classic' biography of Engels is Gustav Mayer's Friedrich Engels (vol. 1, J. Springer, Berlin, 1920; vol. 1, 2nd edn, with vol. 2, Martinus Nijhoff, The Hague, 1934; repr. Kiepenheuer und Witsch, Cologne, 1971). There is an abridged English version in one volume, translated by Gilbert and Helen Highet and edited by R. H. S. Crossman (Chapman and Hall, London, 1936; repr. H. Fertig, New York, 1969). Mayer's work is inspirational, as he was a historian of the German workers' movement and biographer of Lassalle, but his strong identification with his subject, and with his subject's version of events, makes his work somewhat uncritical. Textual scholarship on Engels and Marx and their relationship has in any case advanced an enormous amount in the half-century or so since the biography was first published complete. W. 0. Henderson's two-volume biography in English, The Life of Fried­ rich Engels (Frank Cass, London, 1976) contains an enormous amount of factual detail about Engels and his associates, and it surveys the collected correspondence and memoirs at considerable length. But the author is out of his depth with the intellectual background and political theory required to make sense of Engels's writings. Engels's youthful experiences get short shrift, and his later activities and works are never put into an appropriate context in terms of his lifetime ambitions and achievements as a politician and theorist. The 'official' biography published under the auspices of the East German Institute of Marxism-Leninism is translated into English as Frederick Engels: A Biography (ed.

  • Becoming Max Stirner
    BECOMING MAX STIRNER Most of what is known about the person who became “Max Stirner” was discovered and collected in the late nineteenth century by his biographer, the Scottish-German novelist, poet, and anarchist writer John Henry Mackay. Mackay laments in his biography that very little is known about Max Stirner. Mackay regrets that he was able to gather only the “bare facts” about Stirner’s life, especially before the publication of The Ego alld Its Own. Mackay reports that many of his efforts to uncover the facts about Stirner’s life, beyond the “mere statistics” and “dead numbers,” were frustrated by the absence of pertinent documents and lack of cooperation from certain principals, specifically, Stirner’s second wife Marie Dahnhardt. “Max Stirner” was actually the pen name, or the nom de guerre, of a German schoolteacher named Johann Caspar Schmidt. Schmidt acquired the nickname “Stirner” as student because of his high forehead, which was accentuated by the manner in which he parted his hair. “Max Stirner” was a humorous, but affectionate moniker because it translates into “Max the Highbrow.” Schmidt was born in the Bavarian town of Bayreuth on November 6, 1806, to Albert Christian Heinrich Schmidt, a flute maker and part-time portrait painter, and Sophia Eleonora Schmidt. 1806 was a year of considerable social disorganization in Bayreuth and the entirety of West Prussia because of the Napoleonic Wars. 1806 was the last year of Prussian rule, which was replaced by the domination of Napoleon. Schmidt’s parents were likely married in 1805 and had no other children.

Rather than treating the concept as purely derogatory, I show that for Marx and Engels, the petty bourgeoisie was crucial in their Broader critique of political economy By emBodying the contradiction between capital and labour. Because of their structural position between the bourgeoisie and the proletariat, the petty bourgeoisie are economically, politically, and socially pulled in two separate directions––identifying with either the owners of property, with propertyless workers, or with both simultaneously. This analysis is then extended by investigating Marx’s critique of Pierre-Joseph Proudhon. I argue that for Marx, Proudhon was not wrong Because he was a memBer of the petty Bourgeoisie.

Revelation and Revolution: Friedrich Engels and the Apocalypse Roland Boer Research Professor School of Humanities and Social Science University of Newcastle New South Wales, Australia Abstract In tracing a relatively unknown but important feature of the work of Friedrich Engels, this article offers a critical commentary on his lifelong engagement with the New Testament book of Revelation. Beginning with material from his late teens, when he was undergoing the long, slow process of giving up his Calvinist faith, Engels used the text for humor and satire, for polemics, and as a way to express his own exuberance. As the years unfolded, he would come to appreciate this biblical book in a very different fashion, namely, as a historical document that offered a win- dow into earliest Christianity. Through three essays, one on Revelation, another on Bruno Bauer (from whom Engels drew increasingly as he grew older), and a third on early Christianity, Engels developed the influential argument that Christianity had revolutionary origins.

  • The Young Hegelians and Karl Marx
    5-" || AVID MC THE YOUNG HEGELIANS AND KARL MARX David McLellan Essential reading for students of nineteenth-century German thought and of Marxism,this book rediscovers in the Young Hegelian movement the intellectual origins of Marx's thought After an introductory analysis of the secularisation ofthe move­ ment as its members moved from theological criticism to political opposition, there followsections on the four most prominent radical disciples of Hegel: Bruno Bauer, Feuerbach, Stirner and Hess. Their work is dis­ cussed in itself and also for its influence on Marx. Inthese sections the background to such questions as the theological origins of Marx’s ideas, his relationship to Hegel and how he came to be primarily interested in economics is discussed. The book makes clear that Marxism is very much a product. albeit an original product, of its time and can only be understood with reference to the intellectual atmosphere in which it was conceived.
