![Guide to Marxist Economics - Ep 1. Primitive Communism
Each episode of the series will discuss one important topic of Marxist political economy. This video discusses human history before the birth of class society.
[Correction: I said people have existed for 1-2 million years. Its actually longer then that, maybe even 4-5 million years. The earliest known Australopithecus is from 4.2 million years ago, which apparently already produced stone tools. The genus Homo appeared more then 2 million years ago]
