Every text requires the participation of the reader to complete its meaning, causing a permanent renewal of its possibilities as each generation of interpreters is interrogated by new social, theoretical, and political quandaries. Karl Marx’s Paris Manuscripts have been the object of heated debate and interpretation from their publication in 1932 onwards. If during the first decades after their publication the París Manuscripts were read through the leans of the political conflict of the interwar Period, the Cold War, and the Humanism Debate, today discussion concerning speciesism, anthropocentrism, and environmentalism provide new readings. In this paper I present the different interpretative strategies that the authors have developed to deal with the main concepts of the Paris Manuscripts from the critique of speciesism and anthropocentrism, in contrast with the strategies followed by traditional readings.

Palabras clave : Anthropocentrism; Speciesism; Marxism; Estrangement; Species-being.
