THE POLICY CONCEPT THAT DEVELOPMENT KARL MARX

The Marxism as it has been practiced by the various socialist movements before 1914.
The Marxism has worked out by Vladimir Ilich Lenin and Joseph Stalin, which under the name
of Marxism, became the doctrine of the communist parties set up after the Russian revolution.
Marxism is a doctrine created with the theories of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels and consisted
in three ideas:
 A philosophical anthropology: Focuses on the way material factors cause social
transformation.
 A theory of history: Centered around the idea that forms of society rise and fall as they
further and then impede the development of human productive power.
 An economic and political program: method of socioeconomic analysis that views class
relations and social conflict using a materialist interpretation historical development and
takes a dialectical view of social transformation
The context of this doctrine is that they wanted to not just visualize and idealize a world but
transforming the world. He thought that philosophy must become a reality.
The idea of transforming it is based on the utopias which were described as the perfection of
civilization; however, it was never questioned how to do it until Karl Marx posed the question.
The Marxism’s main idea is the material, and the development of the history is not spiritual, is
material. Marx also wondered if the ideas are above the material and concluded that no, the ideas
are molded thanks to the material.
Marxism posits that the struggle between social classes, specifically between the bourgeoisie or
capitalists, and the proletariat or workers, defines economic relations in a capitalist economy and
will inevitably lead to revolutionary communism. The class struggle was about four periods of
the humanity: Primitive Communist System, Slavery, Feudalism, and Capitalism.
Its purpose was to show that it doesn’t matter how much effort you point into changing
Capitalism, it can never be in the direction of the interest of the majority, the working class
would always be paid less and would never aspire for more.
