Albert Camus on Violence - Dictionary of Arguments
Brocker I 313 Violence/Camus: Camus is concerned with the question of how to renounce violence as much as possible for the sake of justice. Revolutionary Marxists, on the other hand, think in the widespread style of the 19th century, which believed in science and technology but did not trust it to such an extent that it would have wanted to renounce violence. On the contrary: war and violence are the means used by progress. >Marxism, >Justice. Camus: "The proletarians fought and died to give power to the military or intellectuals, future military, who in turn oppressed them".(1) 1. Albert Camus, L’Homme révolté, Paris 1951.
