are not mpon^ble for all die nomense today. What is die influence of dm Marxian doctrine on ideas? The philosopher Rene Descanes (1596-1650), who lived m die earH' seventeendi century; believrd that man had a mmd and that man thmks, but that animals were merely machines. Marx said, of course, Descartes lived m an age in which the "Manufakturpenoden," the took and machines, were such that he was forced to explain his theor\' by saving that animals were machines. Albrecht von Hailer (1708-1777), a Svîss,said the same thing m the eighteenth century (he didn't like liberal govmmient s equaht>' under law). Betwren these twT> men. lived de La Mettne, who also expbmed man as a machine. Therribrr, Marx's concept that ideas wnr a product of the toob and machines of a particular era is easily dnpfpvcd John Locke (I632-17(MJ, the vkrll-knou-n philosopher of empiricism, declared that e\rrything in mens minds comes trom sensual experience Marx sa>-s John Locke %%-as a spokesman for the class doctrine oi the bourgeoisie This Icadi to hat) dilferrnt deductxms toom the v^Titings ot' Karl Marx: ( 1 ) The interpretation he fp\T to Descartes is that he was bvmg in an age when machines ^ftrrr introduced and, therribfr.

Karl Mannhemis (1893-1947] sociology of knowledge grew out of M.tlcr, .dcas Everybody thinks in ideologies-:.e., false doctrines. But there .s one class of ,nen which enjoys a special pnvilege-Marx called them the unattached mtellectuals." These "unattached intellectuals" have the privilege of discovering truths which are not ideology. The influence of this idea of "interests" is enormous. First of all remember that this doctrine doesn't say men act and think according to what they consider to be their interests. Secondly, remember that they I omider ••interrsi5"as independent of the thoughts and ideas of men.These itidependent interests force men to think and to act in a definite way As an example of the influence this idea has on our thinking today I might mention a U.S. Senator—not a Democrat—who said that people vote •iccording to their "interests"; he didn't say in accordance with what they think to be their interests. This is Marx's idea—assuming that "interests" are something definite and apart from a person's ideas. This idea of class doctrine was first developed by Karl Marx in the Communist Manifesto. Neither Engeis nor Marx was of the proletariat. Engels was very \Nralthy. He hunted for fox in a red coat—this was the pastime of the rich. He had a girifi-iend he considered too far beneath him to think ot marrv'ing. She died, and her sister became her successor. He finally married the sister, but just as she was dying—only two days before her death.
