Human Nature is to many a paradoxical relationship‚ to Karl Marx and Thomas Hobbes it forms those common elements which act as mans ‘means to life’ and mans eternal struggle with his own chains.

Some scholars believe that there is an ideological break in Karl Marx’s writings where he changes from a Hegelian philosopher to a structuralist who was focused on economics. I feel that this question is difficult to answer without a date or textual specified break in writings. There is definitely a change in the focus and tone of Marx’s writings‚ but a clear line of theoretical change where a previous belief is discarded does not seem apparent.
