Synopsis

Herr Eugen Dühring's Revolution in Science, commonly known as Anti-Dühring, is a book by Friedrich Engels, published in 1878 and first serialised in the newspaper Vorwärts in 1877–1878. The work is a polemical response to the philosophical views of Eugen Dühring, a German philosopher and socialist whose ideas were gaining influence within the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD). In countering Dühring, Engels provided a comprehensive and accessible exposition of Marxism as a "science". The book is divided into three parts—Philosophy, Political Economy, and Socialism—and became a major contribution to the development of Marxism as a systematic and coherent school of thought.
