This book reviews Marx's contributions to the debate on the working
class. The first part of the work presents the synthesis of the
main contributions of Marx and Engels (and 20th century Marxist
writers) to the understanding of social classes, the class
struggle, and the working class. The remaining parts present
exercises of dialogue between Marx's and Marxists' discussions on
the working class, presented in the first part, and empirical
elements of class reality today, as well as debates in the social
sciences and historiography on the same issues. The thesis defended
in the book is simple: the "working class," also called the
"proletariat," as it appears in the work of Karl Marx, had and has
validity as an analytical category for the understanding of social
life under capitalism. Nevertheless, Marx's discussion on the issue
is complex and the category "working class" in his approach is
wider than many Marxists have presented it.
