ABSTRACT
Karl H. Marx (1818-1883), a 19th-century German philosopher, described four categories of worker alienation under capitalism.
Alienation refers to the state of being cut off from one's actual self. In theory, alienation refers to people's separation from components of their human nature as a result of living in a society divided into social classes.
Karl Marx sees capitalism as wicked , it is an economic system whereby the means of production and distribution is in the hand of a few wealthy individuals while the majority,. who are the workers devote all their human effort in manufacturing and distribution process and end up being paid little amount known as ahags6 or wages while the capitalist enjoy surplus value or profit.
The economic and political system, according to Karl Marx, is alienating. He feels that man is becoming increasingly estranged from his labour community, self, and natural environment.
Karl Marx proposed an economic and political system in which there would be no class struggle because of the alienating nature of nature.
The purpose of this research is to critically examine Karl Marx's theory of alienation and demonstrate why I believe that man, as a free and rational animal, is not alienated because he lives in a free society and is blessed with freedom of movement and decision-making. Man is born to seek means of survival, and land is a free gift from nature.
