It has occurred to me that Marxist philosophy opposes that of Gandhi. Marx says, "...the division of labor implies the conflict between the interest of the individual or the individual family and the communal interest of all individuals having contact with one another...In communist society...where nobody has an exclusive area of activity and each can train himself in any branch he wishes, society regulates the general production, making it possible for me to do one thing today and another tomorrow, to hunt in the morning, fish in the afternoon, breed cattle in the evening, criticize after dinner, just as I like, without ever becoming a hunter, a fisherman, a herdsman, or a critic" (119). Marx describes an idealist community where no one has a specific role. Each person can do whatever he pleases at any given moment of any given day. Gandhi, however, believes in a Varna system. In this form of society, each individual has a different job, but each job has an equal significance. The job of each individual is passed down through families. Gandhi and Marx have very different views about the division of labor of society.
