ABSTRACT
The struggle between the two principles is being fought out, and nothing can end it but total victory on one side or the other. It involves the whole destiny of mankind. But a struggle implies something about which it is fought, implies an objective. Undoubtedly capitalism as a ruling principle has had its day: human evolution has passed it by. Karl Marx studied capitalism above all from the point of view of the scientist. After analysing it he expressed the opinion that this form of the life of human societies is doomed to failure by the logic of facts, and that it will have to disappear to enable mankind to exist. Marx was one of the first to attempt to view economic and sociological problems from angle of the science of his time; this will make his work immortal, as is that of Darwin, who set idea of biological evolution on a firm basis, and greatly contributed to its spread.
