Marx and plebeian republicanism

Abstract

This text seeks to take up the discussion around the republican moment of the young Marx, which began a few years ago by the French philosopher Miguel Abensour. Based on articles regard-ing wood theft, the Kreuznach Manuscript, as well as the articles published by Abensour in the Franco-German Annals, the author defends the theory that states that the transition of a liberal Marx to a communist Marx does not take place in the year 1843 but rather in the transition from an abstract republicanism to a plebeian republicanism
