Did Karl Marx and or Friedrich Engels ever use the term Capitalism or Capitalist when talking about Capitalism in their books or writtings ?

[SacRedMan]

Huh? :confused:

[Blake's Baby]

I think what SacRedMan means is, 'have you ever read any Marx or Engels?'

[Rooster]

The wealth of those societies in which the capitalist mode of production prevails, presents itself as "an immense accumulation of commodities," its unit being a single commodity.

Capital Vol 1, page 1, first sentence.

Ever heard of Das Kapital?

I really suggest you do some reading :blink:

[ZeroNowhere]

I believe that this is in fact seen as a deeply controversial and important question by a subset of socialist theoreticians who love talking and dislike saying anything.

Yeah. I'm pretty sure Marx was the first guy to call the system "Capitalism".

Why do you ask this?

[Thug Lessons]

No they did not.

[Heathen Communist]

Yes, they did.
In one note made by Engels "By 'bourgeousie' is meant the class of modern capitalists..."
Marx wrote "Das Kapital," which makes mention of "capitalism," "capitalists," etc. numerous times.

[Hebrew Hammer]

No and the above quotes are obviously forged.

[Kamos]

Yeah. I'm pretty sure Marx was the first guy to call the system "Capitalism".

Why do you ask this?

Wikipedia "Capitalism". Proves you wrong.
