Question

"Capitalist production . . . develops technology and the combining together of various processes . . . only by sapping the original sources of all wealth—the soil and the laborer." —Karl Marx, The Communist Manifesto Which statement challenges the main idea of Marx's statement?

Answer 1

Communist Manifesto Which statement challenges the main idea of Marx's statement

Explanation:

1.The Communist Manifesto summarizes Marx and Engels's theories about the nature of society and politics and is an attempt to explain the goals of Marxism, and, later, socialism

2.When writing The Communist Manifesto, Marx and Engels explained how they thought capitalism was unsustainable and how the capitalist society that existed at the time of the writing would eventually be replaced by a socialist one.

3.Dr. James Bradford "Brad" DeLong, professor of economics at UC-Berkeley, wrote in 2011 that Marx's "primary contribution" to economic science actually came in a 10-paragraph stretch of The Communist Manifesto, in which he describes how economic growth causes shifts among social classes, often leading to a struggle for political power.
