La crítica de la economía política de Karl Marx como una crítica de la violencia

This article points out that in Karl Marx's critique of political economy there is a critique of violence. Following a polemical reading of some of his texts, I point out that Marx, in a certain way, was interested in understanding social relations from the point of view of anti-violence, beyond a normative perspective. Accordingly, the author of Capital is not interested in thinking of anti-violence as a world to come, but as a condition of the existent that interrupts the violence that is reproduced in social formations. In order to demonstrate this hypothesis, this text, in the first place, distances itself from certain readings that situate Marx as a humanist thinker. Secondly, I develop the concept of anti-violence in Marx, following his materialist method that appears in the second edition of Capital. Finally, I focus on how violence is a struggle against the anti-violent condition that inhabits everything that exists.
