    Perhaps I don’t know what Markism is. Is it a school of thought, or a subcategory of sociology? An Ought or an Is?

      Marxism and MLism as an ideology is fundamentally about studying the relationships between things through: looking at past history and current conditions, hypothesizing, and testing that hypothesis.

        Interesting. It seems like Marxism isn’t a science so much as a philosophy about sciences. You’re correct that it extends far fuether than I had assumed.

        I do maintain that the chart is using incorrect language in describing it’s categories though. Many of them are describing something that could be part of study or the result of study, but not a science themselves. Toy destruction isn’t a science, but the destruction of toys could be part of one.

          Conversely Marxism applied to politics is an attempt to apply that model as rigorously as possible given the constraints the people doing the method are under.
