same type There was never any answer m Marx as to what language the
N4arx was fUnous when someone said there were differences between
men m the same nation the same city, the same branch of business, just
^ aU Marxists became fUnous when someone told them there were
dil crences between Englishmen and Eskimos. According to Marx the
only difference was due to education. If an idiot and Dante 'had
bee, educated m the same way, there would have been no difference
between them. This idea influenced Marx's followers, and it is still one of
the guiding principles of American education. Why is not everybody
equally intelligent? Many Marxians assume that in the fUture socialist
commonwealth the average person will be equal in talents, gifts,
intc-jligence. artistic attainments, to the greatest men of the past, such as
Tn.t^ky. Arisiode. Marx, and Goethe, although there will stiU be some
more gifted people.
It never occurred to Marx that, in the best case, education can only
irainfer Co the pupil what the teacher already knows. In the case of Marx,
It wouldn't have been enough for him to have been educated in a school
by perfect Hegelian teachers because then everything he would have
pn)duced would have only been Hegelianism again. By educating people
in the knowledge of the generation preceding motor cars, it wouldn't have
been possible to produce motor cars. Education can never bring about
progfTSS as such. That some people, thanks to their positions, inheritance,
education, and so on, have the gift to go one step farther than preceding
generations cannot be explained simply by education.
Similarly, it is impossible to explain great things and the great acts of
some men simply by referring to their national affiliation. The problem is,
why were these people different from their brothers and sisters? Marx
simply assumed, without any reason, that we are now living in the age of
uuernationalism and that all national traits will disappear. In the same way
that he assumed that specialization would disappear, because machines can
he operated by unskilled workers, he assumed there would no longer be
•my differences between various parts of the world and various nations.
I- very kind of conflict between nations was interpreted as the consequence
of' the machinations of the bourgeoisie. Why do Frenchmen and Germans
flight? Why did they fight in 1870? Because the ruHng classes of Prussia
and the ruling classes of France wanted to fight. But this had nothing to
do with the interests of nations.
