Karl Marx's documented role is: He wrote notebooks later titled 1844 Manuscripts. In the causal graph this event weakens the driver Labour-Market Tightness.

Read the full account

Karl Marx's documented role is: He wrote notebooks later titled 1844 Manuscripts. Publication is twentieth-century. Medium path because unpublished then.

Context

Paris exile. Engels is a neighbouring meeting, not this notebook's co-author unless a page says so. Driver labour-market-tightness is attached because the significance names a mechanism from this act, not because a standing list needed coverage.

Confidence is stated on the impact path, not hidden in adjectives.

Why it matters

A labour-alienation analysis is a labour path of medium public-weight in 1844. The welfare reading on this path is improving.

That reading is an impact-path choice, not a property stored on the Fact itself.

Naming Karl Marx does not delete co-authors, institutions, or later transmitters. The lag from 1844-08-01 to any measured indicator is not treated as zero. Alternative explanations — weather, other armies, later statutes, or independent cultural change — remain live where the sources do not close them.

If a number is not in the two records named above, it is not supplied here.

Later competitions, monuments, translations, UNESCO listings, museums, and adaptations are not converted into extra lifetime acts.
