    Abstract

    This text presents some fundamental ideas of the young Marx, which are related to his criticism of the modern view of emancipation. It will be pointed out that Marx believes that the representative system of modernity warps politics, shapes the state as the committee of the bourgeoisie, which privileges its own interests to the detriment of citizens.
