Abstract


Although the Economic and Philosophical Manuscripts of 1844 is not a complete discussion of beauty and aesthetics as a whole, Marx’s work focuses on the practice of human production and explains the emergence of beauty in human labor, the rule of beauty that satisfi es the “two dimensions”, the disappearance of beauty due to the alienation of labor under the capitalist system of private ownership, and the realization of beauty in the communist society.

Keywords
