Summary/Abstract: Can we talk about Marx’s ethics? There are several answers. A strong affirmative answer is that his whole theory is ethics (and it requires detecting its normative skeleton). A weak affirmative answer is that we can find some ethically relevant parts of Marx’s theory, esp. in concepts of freedom, justice, and equality. On the other hand, a weak negative answer is that Marx neglects ethics, but his theory can be supplemented with one, for example, Kantian. Finally, a strong negative answer is that ethics within the framework of his philosophy is not even possible. The aim of this paper is to outline discussion about those positions and to show the range of possible interpretations of Marx’s theory.
