S/P/26. How Reasonable was Marx's expectation that the development of human productive powers would destroy the viability of the Capitalist State?

This essay will outline Marx's theory, and propose that it is impossible to accept the emphasis that Marx places upon the determinate capacities of the economy. The essay will outline a number of theoretical considerations and support such conclusions using the developments of Communism in USSR. However, it will not mistakenly regard such political events as the practical application of Marx's theorising, but to show the dangers of Marx's logic and how ideas are influential forces themselves in history, contradicting Marx's teleological assumptions.
