Marx Religion as an Illusion and Ideology

Summary/Abstract: Marx has an important place among religion sociology theorists, although he did not directly write any papers that reported any analysis of religion. Instead, he expressed his thoughts on religion by criticizing the opinions by Hegel, Feuerbach, Bauer and English economy politicians. The main purpose of this study is to present a chronological compilation on religion concept, presented in his newspaper articles, papers and books. According to Marx, religion is both a kind of illusion and an ideology. This study reveals that the religion phenomenon keeps a broader place in his early papers, and that in a general sense, religion is understood as an illusion.
