Marx
Petersen T. and M. Faber (2015) Karl Marx und die Philosophie der Wirtschaft. Bestandsaufnahme – Überprüfung – Neubewertung. 3. Auflage, Alber Verlag, Freiburg. This book attempts to give an overview over important parts of Marx‘ work. This is done from the perspective of contemporary economic theory in the first part of the book. The second part shows the motives Marx has taken from those philosophers, who dealt with the philosophy of economics: Aristotle, Hobbes, Locke, Rousseau, Smith und Hegel. – See for his relationship to Evolutionary Economics Petersen and Faber (2015:145).
