The Communist Manifesto :: Literary Analysis, Marx
The Communist Manifesto written by Karl Marx in 1848 is noted as one of the most influential semipolitical documents in the world. The publication of the book earned Marx the reputation of a gr acceptup sociologist and political theorist. Despite his renown, there are many controversies concerning the ideas and concepts of communism theorise in the papers that are still heatedly debated even today. Marx (1998) clear the book with, The story of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles. (p.4). He scrutinized the class differences and social inequality between the Proletariats and Bourgeoisies, both terms he coined to represent social classes that do not own the means of intersection and social classes that do own the means of production respectively. Since The Communist Manifesto was produced in an era of great social distress, it was the egress of Marxs desire to eliminate the gap between the twain classes in order to ameliorate the social, political, a nd economic conditions of the Proletarians. To achieve equality, Marx encouraged the Proletarians to conspire against the Bourgeoisies to oddity the exploitation of lower social classes and set up a communist society where class distinction is a leap of imagination. However, his ideal undeniable changes that a society cannot successfully adapt to and do not finally provide equality. Marxs theories were established upon completely class stratification and snub the many other factors that contribute to the foundation of a society. The entire itemisation of demands that outlines the rules and regulations of communism do not fundamentally offer fairness. Communism disrupts the all in all social exchange system which leave alone eventually corrupt the providence of a society. Thus, the theories introduced in The Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx are not relevant in modern industrialized societies primarily because they focus only on the issue of class stratification and neglected the other complications have-to doe with in a society.Marx (1998) believed that Society as a whole is more and more splitting up into two great hostile camps, into two great classes directly facing each other bourgeoisie and proletariat. (p.4). It was a vital mistake to polarize the people exclusively on classes kind of of taking into account the other factors that contribute to the build-up of a society much(prenominal) as traditions, religious ideologies, trust, laws, cultures, and such. Attempting to create equilibrium between solely the classes will cause new and severe problems that cannot be fixed with Marxs theories.
