Karl Marx was trying to develop a critique of society which he claimed was both scientific and revolutionary.
Said that,”Power should be held by workers.” “Workers will unite across national borders to wage
class warfare.” How does that workout?
The theory seeks the elimination of private property in order to gain control of the economic "means of production" by taking it from the bourgeois (the wealthy or propertied class) for the benefit of the proletariat (working class.)
