Philosophy and Science

In Defence of Hegel

Details Hamid Alizadeh logo 27 Aug 2020

Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel was born 250 years ago on 27 August 1770 in the German city of Stuttgart. A towering genius with an encyclopaedic mind, Hegel revolutionised every field that he dedicated himself to. The impact of Hegel’s ideas cannot be underestimated. As Marxists, we owe him a tremendous debt.

The COVID-19 pandemic and science under capitalism

Details Anthony Oakland logo 13 May 2020

Revelations that Dominic Cummings sat on the government’s scientific advisory committee have raised question marks over just how ‘impartial’ expert advice is. Under capitalism, science will never be truly objective or independent.

160 years of Darwin's 'Origin of the Species'

Details Ben Curry logo 25 Nov 2019

Yesterday was the 160th anniversary of Darwin's 'Origin of Species'. Albeit unconsciously, Darwin's theory of evolution revealed how nature operates dialectically. This radically challenged the ideology of the ruling class.

Why capitalism is stunting science

Details Anthony Oakland, KCL Marxists logo 23 Jul 2019

Far from fuelling scientific progress, the profit motive and capitalist competition have become an enormous barrier to advancing humanity's understanding of nature. Only a socialist plan can free science from these chains.

Stephen Hawking, black holes, and the evolution of the universe

Details Alan Woods logo 14 Mar 2018

"All individual beings must perish, but the wonderful diversity of the material universe in all its myriad manifestations is eternal and indestructible. Life arises, passes away, and arises again and again. Thus it has been. Thus it will ever be."
