The inaugural issue of the Scientia International Journal for Human Sciences presents the article \u201cCity, Work, and Urban Segregation: Notes from Engels\u201d, authored by Michel Goulart da Silva.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This essay revisits Friedrich Engels\u2019 classic work The Condition of the Working Class in England in order to analyze the material conditions experienced by workers and their employment situation during the Industrial Revolution. Moving beyond a strictly historical reading, the article connects Engels\u2019 reflections to broader economic and social transformations, emphasizing how mechanisms of proletarian exploitation persist into the 21st century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drawing on Marxist scholarship developed throughout the 20th and 21st centuries, the study highlights the structural relationship between industrial development, urban space, and social inequality. It invites readers to reconsider how the organization of the modern city continues to reproduce patterns of segregation and labor precarization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
