SEAN SAYERS
ABSTRACT:
Marx sees history as a progressive development. This
account is often criticized for portraying history in a Hegelian
fashion as a single teleological process culminating ultimately in
a classless communist society. Is this criticism justified? What role
— if any — do teleological ideas play in Marx’s philosophy? Marx
himself is unclear on these issues. Through a critical discussion
of Althusser’s view that history is a process without a subject, it
is argued that Marxism is best seen as a theory which involves a
naturalistic concept of teleology and which describes the historical
emergence of the human subject. This interpretation is supported
by comparison of Marx’s theory of history with Darwinian
evolutionary theory.
