The discourse of Marxism regarding concepts of"justice"and"fairness"encompasses both descriptive and norma-tive elements.In the descriptive context,Marx and Engels sought to elucidate the intricate relationship between morality and the mode of material production,the historical nature of morality,the class-based character of morality,and the interplay between mo-rality and class interests.In the normative context,they critically assessed capitalism as inherently unjust.In doing so,Marx and Engels positioned themselves as advocates for the proletariat,representing their interests and condemning the oppression inflicted up-on them by capitalist societies.Furthermore,through their scientific examination of history,they posited that the realization of prole-tarian interests aligns with the trajectory of historical development,thereby asserting that the proletarian conception of justice they es-pouse is more rational than bourgeois moral perspectives.Their yardstick for evaluating the rationality of divergent class-based con-ceptions of justice does not lie outside of history,but is derived from history itself.It entails assessing the extent to which the reali-zation of class interests,as represented by each perspective,aligns with the inexorable course of historical development.
