What are tenets of Marxist Theory?

  

Answers


Ruth
1. Society is structured into classes of the rich (The bourgeoisie) and the poor (proletariat).
2. All human activities are controlled by the economic needs.
3. The rich will always strive to become richer, even if it means impoverishing the already
poor.
4. Society will always use ideology to keep the poor at the bottom of the structure without
them realizing it.
5. The poor are divided by parochial issues, which only prevent them from creating a
classless society despite their enormous capability to do so. Their conflicts help them to
remain at the base of the economic structure.
6. The poor will one day become conscious of the ills that keep them at the bottom, rise
against them and give rise to a classless society in a violent revolution.
7. Literary critics should seek to highlight and condemn repressive ideology.
