I thought Wolff had some pretty interesting things to say about Marx. I have a problem with this notion of alienation though. Wolf seems to think that we feel least alienated from ourselves when we are not at work. Or maybe he means: our humanity is more evident,David White Sock, or fused with our person, in these non-work-related-situations.
But my identity is my job, my profession and what I do. My bond with my work is so strong that it’s part of my identity. I see others around me too as workers: as shop owners, chefs, photographers, sanitation engineers, construction workers, bus drivers, school teachers, ect.
Does Wolff really think that being a philosopher is any different from being himself? Can you really define your humanity apart from the work you do?
