Conference "Marx in the bicentenary of his birth: a balance of perspectives".

 

Presentation

The bicentenary of the birth of Karl Marx (1817-2017) is being commemorated in academic circles of very diverse nature, being accompanied by the corresponding publications and conferences. In this line the following conference is presented around this author, which will address his work and his legacy, the latter through the succession of thinkers who have investigated him and specifically in his philosophical, sociological, legal and political field, and not only in the economic, which on the other hand usually comes to be the best known and reputed area of the author.

The aim is to bring together several specialists in the field, representing the latest generation of researchers on Marx's work, including Michael Heinrich (who is currently embarking on an immense multi-volume project on the work of Karl Marx: http://marx-biografie.de/expose/expose_es/) ,a renowned specialist in the work of the Trier thinker. He will be joined by a number of younger scientists who in recent years have contributed books, articles, papers and panels to various publications and meetings. Among the latter are researchers of the relevance of César Rendueles, César Ruiz Sanjuán, Clara Ramas, Sonia Arribas or Luis Alegre.

In short, the event aims to provide a meeting point for reflection and the exchange of knowledge on the latest advances related to the work of Karl Marx. It is part of the C.L.A.S.S.I.C.O.S seminar of the NEW TRUST-CM project in which the Research Group on Law and Justice of the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (http://www.trust-cm.net/es/actividad/33.html), is involved, thus giving continuity to what has been a backbone activity of its trajectory
