Abstract

The aim of this writing is to do a basic comparison between nineteen century Marxist theory and the various positivist and cientificist movements of that time, starting from the critique that Marx does to the notion of “objective truth» used then by positive science, in order to reflect on the inherent limits and difficulties present in any pretention of having a completely “objective» discourse; including that of the Marxist theory itself.
