Back then, however, to take such a letter seriously would have been to sanction a process of self-examination the stresses of which I refused, because they would have required me to do violence to my own illusions.

I will confess, however, that to present Marx as a libertarian thinker is to do violence to reality, regardless of how much the Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844—with the theory of alienation—and The Civil War in France are profusely cited (just as Lenin’s The State and Revolution is also cited).
Confesaré, aun así, que presentar a Marx como un pensador libertario es violentar la realidad. Y ello por mucho que se citen con profusión al respecto los Manuscritos de 1844 —con la teoría de la alienación— y La guerra civil en Francia (como se cita, en el caso de Lenin, El Estado y la revolución).
