Richard, sorry, but Marx is obviously a philosopher first and foremost, and an economist.  Those are the ''subjects'' that he wrote about and is famous for.  He also really belongs in politics because of his foremost position as the political theoretician of the left.  He had a great impact on history, obviously, but via his impact on philosophy, economics, and politics.  The leading experts about Marx are not historians, but philosophers, economists, and political theorists. --[[User:Larry Sanger|Larry Sanger]] 13:29, 20 October 2007 (CDT)

Larry--let's your experts handle this one please. Let the philosphers contribute but so far they have not made a contribution here.  As fir the economists, he's a minor figure as the article explains. [[User:Richard Jensen|Richard Jensen]] 13:44, 20 October 2007 (CDT)

Richard, sorry, but Marx is obviously a philosopher first and foremost, and an economist. Those are the subjects that he wrote about and is famous for. He also really belongs in politics because of his foremost position as the political theoretician of the left. He had a great impact on history, obviously, but via his impact on philosophy, economics, and politics. The leading experts about Marx are not historians, but philosophers, economists, and political theorists. --Larry Sanger 13:29, 20 October 2007 (CDT)
