People always talk about Marx's presence in Spain, but not about Spain's presence in Marx, hence the importance of this work. It is based on Manuel Sacristán's canonical translation of all the scattered texts, as well as notes, references, and an extensive introduction by Professor Alberto Santamaría on Marx's idea of the Spanish revolutionary processes, from the War of Independence to the revolution of 1854. Marx wrote about this in the chronicles he regularly sent to the most important American newspaper, the New York Daily Tribune. His writings on Spain are important because at that time he was studying political economy and his magnum opus, Capital, was beginning to take shape. In this way, this book demonstrates the powerful influence that Spain had on the genesis of Marxism.
Über den Autor / die Autorin
Filósofo, economista, periodista e intelectual, Karl Marx es un pensador que dio un vuelco al pensamiento al dar origen al marxismo. En su vasta e influyente obra, abarca diferentes campos del pensamiento como la filosofía, la historia, la ciencia política, la sociología y la economía, aunque no limitó su trabajo solamente a la investigación, pues además incursionó en la práctica del periodismo y la política, proponiendo siempre en su pensamiento una unión entre teoría y práctica. Junto a Friedrich Engels, es el padre del socialismo científico, del marxismo y del materialismo histórico.
