But Wagner's method for deriving concepts in fact has little to do with Hegel's approach. "Value" as usevalue is for Wagner a genus under which various species of value are derived through the method of division that Marx referred to in the above passage. This will be discussed further in considering the final objection. It is a plea for materialism and a rejection of conceptual realism. . But once again the point does not apply to Hegel himself. But did Hegel really hold it? With this language Hegel was simply trying to capture the unity of the progression in which the three categories are united while remaining distinct.
It turns out that the problem is not with the theoretical project of ordering categories systematically, but with Proudhon's execution of that project. The true starting point for thought must instead be a concrete material object, such as the commodity. In this sense it is in principle as "ideal" as the thought constructs found in Hegel. 11 When Marx rejected this methodology it was not the Hegelian approach that he rejected. But Wagner's method for deriving concepts in fact has little to do with Hegel's approach.
