Kaufman's article >On Alienation< (Inquiry, Vol. 8, No. 2, 1965, pp. 141-65) shows no understanding of the concept of alienation, and the authors undertake to contrast the concept as Hegel and Marx develop it and Fromm and Mills re-state it, with Kaufman's interpretations of Marx, Fromm and Mills. They contrast the Marxist self-realization framework with Kaufman's want-satisfaction framework, and argue that in Marx alienation is necessarily concerned solely with labor, is unavoidable because a necessary stage of self-development, and has inseparable sociological and moral aspects. They claim that Kaufman's article shows no understanding of any of these points.}, language = {en} }
