When looking at what alienation and anomie are, we can see that they are similar psychological states. ... The concept of alienation was one used frequently by Karl Marx in his earlier works, and less obviously in his later works. ...
Karl Marx, writing in the 1840s, described social alienation while developing the philosophy of communism. ... As Marx describes, “The possessing class and the proletarian class represent one and the same human self-alienation. But the former feels satisfied and affirmed in this self-alienation, experiences the alienation as a sign of its own power, and possesses in it the appearance of a human existence. The latter, however, feels destroyed in this alienation, seeing in it its own impotence and the reality of an inhuman existence.
