[OPE-L] Marx on Chance in History



You may cite this message only if you do not disclose who wrote it.


On aut-op-sy, someone noticed the following quote from "The Marxist
Philosophy of History" by Cornelius Castoriadis:

"Marx says somewhere that 'if there was no element of chance, history
would be magic'"

and asked:

> Q: Did Marx ever write this? If he did, could anyone
> tell me where he wrote it?

Does anyone here know the answer to the 2 questions?  If anyone can
come up with answers then I can forward them to that list.

In solidarity, Jerry
