Mladen IVEZIĆ
Abstract
The works of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels are found in the
fundaments of the ideology of Communism, which has in the
past century and a half been very widespread and powerful
throughout the world. Within this context and on a number
of social levels identification with and commitment to
Marxism or anti-Marxism have occurred. It is thus significant
that in frequent and numerous works and discussions on this
issue very little attention has been given to the fundamental
questions referring to the originality, authenticity and
credibility of works attributed to the creators of Marxism.
Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to explore the status
of originality, authenticity and credibility of the works of K.
Marx and F. Engels during their lives and in the period after
their death.
