The article aims to analyze the similarities and the differences between two critical conceptions about the Capitalism: the Marxist Theory and the Buen Vivir, more specifically considering the proposals to overcome this system and the conditions to materialize them.  The similarities became clear with opposition to a system characterized by the exploitation of the men by the men and of the nature by the men, by the large production of commodities and by the loss of the meaning of an alienated work. Both perspectives propose changes that enable the construction of a less unequal society. Nevertheless, they are based in different understandings about the conditions to materialize it. In the Marxist Theory, based in the historical materialism, the Communism would be practicable only when the relations of production that characterize the capitalism configure an obstacle to the development of the productive forces and when the exploitation of the proletariat reach the limit. In Buen Vivir, in its turn, the social transformation is not conditioned by the class struggle and the exploitation, but the ideas of complementary and equilibrium; and the conscious is not conceived as subordinate to the material conditions for the existence, inasmuch as the material and symbolic plane are not seen as separated.
