This study introduces readers to Karl Marx by presenting selected writings from this prolific and secular political philosopher in Karl Marx Selected Writings. These selections span his early philosophical writings, historical materialism, economics, and later in life political writings. Even with these select writings, only select chapters are read. While there are no dedicated discussion questions, there is much to be discussed in this text. Reading this alongside high school students would provide that conversation opportunity. For example, take this quote: “…a time was approaching when our technology would be able to, if not master nature totally, then use it largely to our purpose and buffer our lives against its harsher aspects and forces. At that point in history, it would no longer be necessary for humans to live in ways that allowed social and political domination of others” and then provide the time to reflect on the message being articulated; how does it conflict or support your worldview; what are the flaws of Marx’ argument; and other reflective questions. 346 pages, softcover. ~Rebecca
