[lbo-talk] Marx without quotations

[James Heartfield]

Ted:
"The idea of "freedom" embodied in the idea of "free manifestations of  
their lives" in "the true realm of freedom" sublates Hegel's idea of  
it as "the unity of the universal and individual", the unity of  
"freedom" and "necessity".  This idea makes the ontological assumption  
that there is a knowable and objective "good".  It's this "good" that  
Marx treats as "transhistorical", as the "unmoved mover" in human  
history."

No, I don't think so. The good ought to change, too, in different moments. It is only transhistorical insofar as it is indeterminate, or empty.
