there is a famous dictum from heidegger (published somewhere!), where he
reminds the last thesis on Feuerbach with regard to world interpretation and
world change (revolution), and he says: in order to change the world
(really) you have to re-interpret it. so this sentence is begging the
argument.
I remember some articles from the 60s and 70s on Heid. and Marx from an
colleague from Yugoslavia, but I forgot now the name, sorry
rafael

David,
Marx is not quite completely ignored. There's reference to him in the
"Letter on
Humanism" and also in the late seminars (under the impact of May 1968), but
there is never any in-depth engagement with Marx which could compare even
remotely with the deep involvement with, say, Nietzsche or Hegel.

Heidegger's reading of Marx seems to be restricted to the Economic-Phil. MSS
and
the German Ideology. Much later he read the Theses on Feuerbach too. The
Critique of Political Economy never touched his thinking.

I say more on this in my article "Capital and Technology: Marx and
Heidegger" at
