Abstract
IN this comparative study—the first of its kind to be undertaken—the author emphasizes the importance of a closer study of psycho-analysis by Marxists, of Marxism by psycho-analysts and of both by the general public. He maintains that as psycho-analysis teaches us to recognize that unconscious motives are at work in us all, the curriculum of the Marxist should include a study of the unconscious mind, both Freud and Marx being pioneers in revolutionary psychological discoveries.
