![]() ![]() But there was practically no sensible critique of the philosophical doctrines of Karl Marx. The most orthodox Marxians tried to revive and restate his doctrines. And later in the 1890s, when the last volume of Das Kapital was published, there appeared the second part of this critique, which completely killed Marx’s economic doctrines. After his death, there appeared the first part of Böhm-Bawerk’s critique of the economic doctrines of Karl Marx. People neither approved, nor criticized, his teachings. Marx, on the other hand, was more or less unknown. Lassalle’s agitations lasted only a year because he was killed in duel as a result of a private affair, but he was considered a great man in his age.
