Alienation | A Brief Explanation
In this video, I'll be giving a brief overview of the phenomenon of alienation and how workers under Capitalism are affected by it on a daily basis. I will also be giving an overview of how Capitalism came about from the old Feudal system, giving rise to new classes and new societal contradictions.
While this video is basic, I do want to stress that it really shouldn't be seen as a substitute for actually going away and reading up on the work done by philosophers like Marx and Engels (who wrote quite extensively on this subject), but instead it should be seen as more of an introduction to those works.
