4. The Alienation of Labor in the Historical process throughout the course of history, however, private property was introduced and this resulted to the gradual alienation of labor from man. Marx believes that this alienation culminates today in this era of capitalism.
5. ALIENATION: Is a situation in which man has lost himself, that is, it has estranged himself itself from his own humanity for the benefit of aggregate external forces which disposes him of his concrete humanity.
6. Thus, the alienated is a man has ceased to be recognized or to recognize himself as a free being, creator, actor of his history, master of natural forces, transformer of the world. He is encased in the aggregate of mechanical gearing in which he finds himself dehumanized, depersonalized.
7. Marx’s Theory of Historical epoch: A.) Primitive Society Is likewise termed as primitive communism since there is no private property because the whole earth belongs to everyone.
