According to economist Karl Marx and Friedrich Engel’s publication “The Communist Manifesto”, what was the key to ending the str
uggle between people of upper and lower classes? The key to ending the struggle was for everyone to embrace capitalism. The key to ending the struggle was to walk away from capitalism and embrace communism, a radical form of socialism. The people of lower and upper classes should unite together to overthrow their governments. Create a society favorable to the upper classes.
There are two key ideas that underlie this theory of class struggle. First, Marx believed that “production,” or work, was the thing that gave life material meaning. Second, is that we are by nature social animals. We work together, we collaborate, we are more efficient when we share resources.
