Abstract

Since the days of More, and probably from much earlier times, bitter controversy has raged around the relation between political or economic doctrine and the material interests of class advantage. The distinction between the seeker after truth and the propagandist is indeed a subtle one; who of us can say when the spirit of science beckons and when the “invisible hand” of environmental prejudice leads us on? The problem, however, has been considerably simplified by the attitude of many of the followers of Marx, who see in all theories which might possibly be turned to the disadvantage of the working class a taint of deep hypocrisy.
