In his article ‘Economic systems and the theory of human nature’, Professor Hirotaro Yamamoto questions Marx's views on human nature and labour on the basis of his understanding of dialectics and its limitations in application and his understanding of human nature. His aim in doing so is to negate the Marxist theory of communism from the perspective of human nature. This article is meant to scrutinize and refute Yamamoto's arguments
