Which are Marx’s four faces of alienation?
Hints
- Three of the four concern the product, the process and other people.
- The fourth concerns the worker's own human potential.
Show the answer
- B. From other workers
- C. From the product of one’s labor
- D. From the process of working
Why
Product, process, others, and the fourth is from one’s own human potential ("species-being"), not from the share price. The checklist is still used to audit job quality: what does the worker control?
