Marxist theory, Technology, Technique and Science.


Hello there.i'm mathematician-programmer and a beginner marxist. I'd like know if there is marxist theory literature that understands technology, science and technique studied in some depth. As far as I understand, marx mentions these topics many times with relation to forces of production, but did he or some later marxist expand upon these ideas? For example, how are the digital age and the AI age understood by marxist theory? How can socialist (present of future) countries use it to improve the transition?Some concrete questions I'm asking myself are:1) even if some nation revolution does occur in a country, it will suffer (besides a million others) the pressure to industrialize to maintain and develop its economy and reach sovereignty, but also to not industrialize (or only do it partially) due to environmental concerns. The issue here is the political takeover of power does not solve the problem of environmental degradation by our productive matrix.2) How should marxist-leninists to deal with the new techniques technologies of capitalist domination?3) How can we appropriate (and which ones) these techniques and knowledge in order to further advance the struggle for a classless society? via /r/communism https://ift.tt/2Uy3aiB
