Summary/Abstract: Engels, by a positivistically abbreviated interpretation of the dialectical method, is thought to have contributed to the banalization of Marx’s thought. Engels himself is somewhat to blame for such a view of his role, for he described his relationship to Marx in terms that can very well be interpreted in that light. It is significant that he, who nevertheless gave impetus, in later years avoided dealing independently with the history of economic thought, economic liberalism, and even economic-theoretical issues in general. This is supported by the fact that in “Anti-Dühring”, which I deal with in more detail below, he left the writing of relevant economic-theoretical passages to Marx.
