Sumario:In this work, focus will be on Hegel’s and Marx’s theoretical constructions on the notion of “the end of History” and also on the opinions that have emerged among a variety of authors from such ideas of finality. We will be thus using the notions of end in Hegel and Marx but also those of a number of scholars that have controversially discussed the issue in recent years. Building on these theoretical premises, the fundamental purpose of this work is to show what ends of history Hegel and Marx postulate and how one is interwoven in the other. The idea is to bring out the historical tradition of the term and its genealogy back to these two authors. To this end, we will resort to a descriptive analysis approach to locate how and where these two authors expound the notion of the end of History. Once we have elaborated on the two authors, we will look for similarities and differences in the theoretical and historical architecture of the ends of history, all of which on the principle that Hegel is the initiator of the notion of end of History and Marx his follower. These notions will be analyzed from a theoretical perspective on the basis of their development of ideas.
