Notes to the materialistic conception of the history from the Armando Hart Dávalos look

Abstract

Armando Hart Dávalos was one of the intellectuals who legitimized the validity of the Marxist theory to interpret and project the future of the human society in function of the social justice. He carried out important reflections about this subject, specially to the materialistic conception of the history. The objective of this work is to reveal the methodological keys developed by him, necessary for the performance and the use of this theory in the current contexts. The hermeneutic paradigm, the analysis and synthesis, and the induction and deduction served as methods for the investigation. As keys of the research are recognized: the antidogmática essence of the Marxism; the electivismo as philosophical method; the Marxism as creative and open theory to the change; the defense of the cultural heritage of the human history; the role of the social utopias, and the objective value of the will of men. All these are considered theoretical tools to understand the social contemporary processes.
