Self-estrangement is the idea spoken by Karl Marx and Melvin Seeman(1959) in Marx's theory of alienation and is a part of Seeman's five logically distinct psychological states that encompasses alientation.[3] As spoken by Marx, self-estrangement is "the alienation of man’s essence, man’s loss of objectivity and his loss of realness as self-discovery, manifestation of his nature, objectification and realization."[2]Self-estrangement is when a person feels alienated from others and society as a whole.This is where a person is first alienated from the products of labour (i.e. alienation from the things that we buy in stores or produce in factories or offices). A person might then be alienated from the process of work, which is an alienation from creativity. Following this, self-estrangement can be defined when a person may feel alienated from themselves as a result of these previous two circumstances. Self-estrangement also effects people's feelings others and themselves making them feel alienated from all aspects of their lives.

Self-estrangement even though it is a small factor, still contributes to alienation ,which contributes strongly to burnout at work.Asanc382 (talk) 18:39, 17 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Great topic! Very interesting and I was exciting to read more about it. The overall article is well written except for minor grammatical errors. The first sentence is a bit confusing, but other than that the rest of the article is exceptionally interesting. I like how in depth you go when discussing how self-estrangement results in alienation. The last sentence in the first paragraph needs to be cited for your viewers and what they can relate your topics to. Subsections are great to add when going into further detail on your page. Overall great topic and how your constructed it. Mwydl001 (talk) 22:23, 18 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
