The Usefulness of Crime

In this incendiary fragment, Karl Marx turns bourgeois morality on its head. Crime, he argues, is not merely a social ill but a paradoxical engine of productivity--spawning law codes, police forces, professors, pulpits, and even literature. With biting irony and dialectical flair, Marx reveals how transgression fuels the very order that condemns it.
