Abstract

This paper deals with Gajo Petrović’s understanding of the alienation notion with Marx’s ideas of the notion at the forefront. Highlighting the need of a constant reinterpretation of Marx’s legacy so it doesn’t become fixed in dogmatic rhetoric, Petrović intended to point out the stratification of the alienation phenomenon as a crucial landmark in reality of a contemporary civil individual and in reality of the overall social relationships, as well as the possibility of transcending such stratification. This paper considered Petrović’s understanding of the notions ‘(the essence of) human nature’ and ‘possibility’ as ones which are in a contextual connection to the alienation notion.
