Marxist

Marxism

Marxism is a worldview and method of societal analysis that focuses on class relations and societal conflict, that uses a materialist interpretation of historical development, and a dialectical view of social transformation. Marxist methodology uses economic and sociopolitical inquiry and applies that to the analysis and critique of the development of capitalism and the role of class struggle in systemic economic change. In the mid-to-late 19th century, the intellectual tenets of Marxism were inspired by two German philosophers: Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. Marxist analyses and methodologies have influenced multiple political ideologies and social movements. Marxism encompasses an economic theory, a sociological theory, a philosophical method, and a revolutionary view of social change. There is no single definitive Marxist theory; Marxist analysis has been applied to diverse subjects and has been misconceived and modified during the course of its development, resulting in numerous and sometimes contradictory theories that fall under the rubric of Marxism or Marxian analysis.

10 QUOTES WITH «MARXIST»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word Marxist.
1
Carl Andre
Matter as matter rather than matter as symbol is a conscious political position, essentially Marxist.
2
Mamata Banerjee
We are not Marxist or capitalist; we are for the poor people.
3
Thomas P.M. Barnett
China's headlong rush to industrialize was pursued with the most Marxist of prejudices - bending nature to man's will. That's a desperately hard trick to pull off when one fifth of humanity, having previously subsisted on 7 percent of the world's freshwater supply, decides that it wants to instantaneously increase its caloric intake.
4
Ahmed Ben Bella
I am not a Marxist, but I place myself resolutely at the left.
5
Tony Benn
The Marxist analysis has got nothing to do with what happened in Stalin's Russia: it's like blaming Jesus Christ for the Inquisition in Spain.
6
Fidel Castro
I am a Marxist Leninist and I will be one until the last day of my life.
7
Anatoly Chubais
Killing the private property-that was the center of the Marxist economy and Marxist ideology. That was the center of the Lenin ideology.
8
John Sherman Cooper
Very curious, at the age of about 13 years, Oswald began to study Marxism and he kept on in his writing, affirming that he was a Marxist. Probably he did want to show himself as a great, supreme Marxist.
9
John Sherman Cooper

Rafael Cruz
We need to send Barack Obama back to Chicago. I'd like to send him back to Kenya, back to Indonesia. We have to unmask this man. This is a man that seeks to destroy all concept of God. And I will tell you what, this is classical Marxist philosophy.
