MARX AND SHARIATI: UTOPIC SOCIALISM

Abstract

In the article, the thoughts of Karl Marks (1818–1883) and Ali-Shariati (1933–1977) will be compared in the context of utopian socialism. Firstly, we have to explain the meanings of communism and Marxism. Communism is the philosophical, social, political and economic ideology and movement that defends the common ownership on the means of production. However, Marxism is a political, philosophical and economic doctrine that based on Karl Marx (1818–1883) ideas and its main aim is getting the development of the society with help of Socialism. Naturally, the Shariati criticized and rejected materialism, one of the fundamental principles of Marxism and socialism. He believed that materialism was destroying socialism and Islam was the only way for the oppressors. Sociologist also emphasized that the property belongs to God and it had to be distributed equally wi th justice.
