George Bernard Shaw and Karl Marx

William Irvine

The Journal of Economic History, 1946, vol. 6, issue 1, 53-72

Abstract: In spite of a vast critical literature of increasing agreement, Shaw is stillregarded by many as an irresponsible clown and by many more as a negligible thinker on serious subjects. No one can read about him without realizing that he is anything but negligible. Mr. T. A. Knowlton has thought his economics worthy of lengthy and respectful treatment, and many authorities have attested to his importance in the history of socialism. In her recent work Mrs. Helen M. Lynd says that the Fabian Society developed under the inspiration of Shaw; he “set its early tone.”
