INTRODUCTION
: During
the last three decades of the twentieth century, people of some regions of HOW
DID MARX FORMULATE HIS ISM : We
know Karl Marx (1818-1883), German political
philosopher and revolutionist read in the universities of After
being forced out of Well,
he opined the above from his observations and we are aware of the limitations
of such observation. But he did not stop there, he turned to a fortune teller
(astrologer) and opined ; “the capitalist class would be overthrown and that
it would be eliminated by a worldwide working-class revolution and replaced by
a classless society”. Within less than two centuries, however, his prophecy
has gone wrong and the capitalists have over thrown the fascist dictators who
followed his principles. HOW
WOULD MARX FEEL TODAY ? How would Marx feel today in case he could come and see what really happened with his doctrine ? We have no way to know that, but we can only imagine like the following : (MARX
WITNESSED THE SITUATION IN EX-USSR, IMMEDIATELY BEFORE ITS FALL). Marx : Sorry, the production system I proposed (work according to ability) does not work here. I discover, the party workers and leaders do not work, only the non-party people works. The distribution system I proposed (take according to need) do not work, the party leaders enjoy the most. NOTE
: Marx forgot, after living in this world for millions of years men have
acquired the characteristics of ‘selfishness’, where production can be
ensured only through competition, incentive, monitoring and evaluation. And
that ‘take according to need’ is the dream of an insane. Most of all, when
the administrative power is given in the hands of one party (in this case, the
proletariat. In political Science such one party administration is known as
Fascist government) they introduce what we know as tyranny.
As
a matter of fact Marx was after writing ‘popular books’, from which he
could earn good royalty and he succeeded in that. He did not think if his
doctrines are applicable and sustainable in the field of human being having
complex psychology. Marx then wondered to think, how could his impractical and
absurd doctrine work so long in some countries century ?
MARX
QUESTIONS : HOW COULD THE IMPRACTICAL DOCTRINE SURVIVE SO LONG ? Marx’s
investigation could lead to an “untrue” decision that the army generals
were the most generous, benevolent and kind-hearted persons in this world.
Marx told, his ism was the best medicine to cure the distress and pains of the
poor people. He discovered the men who came forward to shoulder this noble
task were some ‘army generals’. In the battlefield the generals with stony
hearts usually win due to their brutality. Marx wondered, how could those
stony hearts be attracted to the mission of eradicating the pains of the
exploited people ? In
case Marx could afford time and energy to investigate further he could
discover, at certain time of history some army generals were need of a
‘doctrine’ that could help them to attain the post of a ‘honorable
dictator’ and that, the post of the ‘party chairman’ in his ism is
exactly like that. Even though election has been proposed in his ism, such
election in one party system means nothing but electing or adding popular
support for the party chairman. Marx also discovered, the country ran so well
not because of any quality in his doctrine, but because the army personnel and
their military administration. MARX
QUESTIONS : WHY COULD NOT THE BEST MEN BECAME PARTY MEMBERS ? Marx
was convinced, the system and the country under his ism could run efficiently
if the best men of the country be elected to that post. Then he questioned,
why cannot the best man go in that post ? He however discovered, his ism (or a
faulty form of the same) survived because there was a military and fascist
dictator at the top and his faithful deputies in the field. Needless to
mention, in election only these persons would appear as influential members of
the party. Marx released a sign of grief and thought, what would have happened
if the entire population turned communist or party members ? “Oh no”. All
on a sudden Marx understood his own mistake. He could realize, “If all
people of the country turns Communist, the system in fact fails”. The
success of his ism in fact lies within struggle and that can continue till a
part of the people are outside the party. If all turns to party-members, then
the party chairman turns into dictatorship in the eyes of the world and there
remains no need for election. When all the people of the country turn to
communist, the fascist system of administration through the proletariats would
instantly collapse. In democracy they ensure people’s administration through
the bureaucracy by placing over them the representatives elected by popular
vote. In Marx ism, those who guide or mis-guide the bureaucracy are the
fascists/ proletariats/ party-members. Marx
asked to himself : “Who are the men to be eligible for membership of the
party ?” The reply was, “those who believe in party’s manifesto”. Marx
questioned, “Does it really
happen so ?” The reply was , “Oh no. Those who want to grab money,
property and power ‘pretend to believe in party manifesto’ and becomes
party members”. Unknowingly Marx nodded his head in the affirmative. He
understood, what may happen to a country with money, property and power
grabber persons in the party. By this time Marx was convinced, he was in a
completely wrong track. THE
PARTY CHAIRMAN (GENERAL) ASKED : HOW TO SURVIVE ? What
Karl Marx could understand today was understood long ago party chairmen alias
ex-generals, alias dictators, alias leader of the fascist party. They
discovered, their system of production and administration was somehow running.
But it happened so not because of Marx’s ism, but because they applied
military administration and discipline through their military personnel. They
discovered, the stability and survival of their country depended largely upon
the attitudes of the neighboring countries, their competitors. In order to
make their competitors equally lame or handicapped they decided to “export
revolution”. After all Marx in his Critique of the Gotha Program (1875;
translated 1922) said : “Between the capitalist and communist systems of
society lies the period of the revolutionary transformation of the one into
the other*. This corresponds to a political transition period, whose state can
be nothing else but the revolutionary dictatorship of the proletariat.”
(*By “revolutionary transformation of the one into the other” Marx
definitely thought of transformation of capitalism into socialism. What really
happened was the reverse). We do not find space to write details about this
‘export of revolution’. In short we are to say, the ‘export’ from
Ex-USSR was mainly literary and propaganda-types in nature, while those from WHY

with this reality the relatives and descendants of such people fell victim of

very first Marx-Engel-ism was an impractical big sounding propaganda. It has
absolutely no logical base that can make it successful or even to sustain.

Well, pray to God. He would give you success. -
Shall I work for it ? :
Of course you would work. (The
logical answer at this juncture is : Sir, if I study well there is every
possibility that I would do good. Why then should I pray to that unnecessary
thing you call ‘god’ ? Even though they are known as dissidents of
intelligent men, the Hindus never raised this question. In the examination the
‘prey of the cleric’ fails. He asked) : -
Sir, I studied hard and prayed. And I failed. What should I do now ? :
Pray to
God. -
Why
should I ? You know that god could not help me. :
You do not know what is good for you, but only God knows. So pray to
him, he would give you what is beneficial for you. In
this age even a child in the west can understand the ‘bluff’ used by the
cleric. But for generations the Hindus could not find out the bluff. Is
there any reason why should not such people fall victim of the
Marx-Engel’s virus ? Bijon B. Sarma, Co-author, JOURNEY TO THE EAST
