Karl Marx on Life - Dictionary of Arguments

Habermas IV 502
Leben/Marx/Habermas: Marx lacks the historical index to define the term 'life', which fluctuates between Aristotle and Hegel. Marx speaks abstractly of life and life possibilities; he does not have the concept of rationalising the lifeworld. (See Rationalization/Weber
, Rationalization/Habermas). Therefore, his concept of alienation remains ambiguous. See Alienation/Marx.
