I'm thinking of doing an essay for my sociology paper on Marxism vs. Max Weber. Are there any good articles anyone could link me to?
And when Marx says, 'Hitherto the philosophers have only interpreted the world in various ways', what that 'hitherto' means is not a renunciation of theory and that all we need to do is wade in with our fists and there will be no more need for thought.
