Metodologie analýzy politického mýtu na příkladu Karla Marxe v sociálně demokratickém prostředí

This article presents a proposed methodological basis for researching the fundamental political and ideological phenomenon of the 19th century: the myth of Karl Marx in the social democratic context of pre-war Austria. This phenomenon should be investigated from the perspective of the function of myth and its place in the context of social democratic ideas about the world, its specific form, transformations and development over time, and also its modification within different social democratic organisations operating in Cisleithania. The article provides models and questions which can lead to a comprehensive analysis and reconstruction of this myth.
