Marx versus Malthus: overpopulation or senile system? (In Defense of Marxism, 10 November 2023). “In this article, Adam Booth draws on Marx and Engels’ critique of Malthus to expose the false and reactionary implications of these ideas today.”
Ever since Malthus. By Paul Foot (Socialist Worker, 10 September 1994; online at Marxists Internet Archive). “Once there lived a man called Malthus who was worried that so many people in the world didn’t have enough to eat. He came up with a very simple answer. There were too many people in the world.”
Malthus’ Essay on Population at Age 200 – A Marxian view. By John Bellamy Foster (Monthly Review, Vol.50, No.7, December 1998). “Since it was first published 200 years ago in 1798, no other single work has constituted such a bastion of bourgeois thought as Thomas Malthus’ Essay on the Principle of Population. No other work was more hated by the English working class, nor so strongly criticized by Marx and Engels … And in the late twentieth century Malthusianism reemerged once again in the form of neo-Malthusian ecology.”
Malthus, Marx and Socialism. By Edgar Hardcastle (Socialist Standard, June 1975). “Malthus’s Essay was welcomed by some of the ruling class at the time because it could be used not only against revolutionary ideas but against almost any social change.”
