Summary
This book reviews Marxs contributions to the debate on the working class. It also presents exercises of dialogue between Marxs and Marxists discussions on the working class and empirical elements of class reality today, as well as debates in the social sciences and historiography on the same issues. The thesis defended in the book is simple: the "working class," also called the "proletariat," as it appears in the work of Karl Marx, had and has validity as an analytical category. Nevertheless, Marxs discussion on the issue is complex and the category in his approach is wider than many Marxists have presented it. Marcelo Badaro Mattos is Full Professor of Brazilian History at Universidade Federal Fluminense, Brazil. He is the author of Laborers and Enslaved Workers (2017).
