This book discusses Marx's thinking on human emancipation based on his critique of capitalism and the prospect of socialism. It analyzes the double relations between persons and things, and persons and persons by tracking Marx's writings, including MEGA², and taking into consideration the socialist practice and socialist reform of the last century. It is a necessary study for social scientists, social and

political philosophers, and students for its deep and wide analysis from the perspective of Marxian theory in practice.
