Abstract
This article analyzes the evolutions of Marx’s positions on colonization. It first emphasizes the invariant of his reflections : the denunciation of colonial violence. We initially find an interpretation of colonization as a process of modernization, then as a dynamic of “destruction-regeneration,” linked to the “unification of the world.” The author identifies above all the successive inflections of Marx’s – resolutely critical – thought about colonial and national issues, the non-line
