Abstract
A first question to raise, in evaluating Marx’s and Engels’ theses on communism, is whether they are founded on a theory of justice. Endless debates have taken place on this subject, which however I do not intend to review here.1 In my opinion those who give a positive answer to the question are just as right as those who give a negative answer, although the latter more so than the former.
