L'umanismo è un comunismo : Marx e la teoria dell’uomo sociale

In this paper we analyse the theory of “social humanity or human society”, depicted by Marx in the Theses on Feuerbach and try to draw some conclusion in a theoretical and ‘post-modern’ perspective. Despite frequent calls for a new humanism, Marx deconstructs the traditional idea of ‘human nature’ and internally processes it by the idea of ‘common’ as a transindividual acting in the social practice. It is therefore possible to read his references according to the transhuman discussion initiated by Nietzsche and brought to a first fulfilment by Foucault and some other twentieth-century authors.
