Abstract
In a letter written on 24 January, 1865 to Schewitzer, Marx, commenting on the work of Proudhon, observed: “Take, for instance, Malthus's book on population. In its first edition it was nothing but a sensational pamphlet … and yet what a stimulus was produced by this libel on the human race.”
