Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Karl Marx argued that class relationships involve inequality and exploitation. He believed that the proletariat (working class) was exploited by the bourgeoisie (owners of the means of production) in a capitalist society. Marx argued that the class struggle would ultimately lead to the overthrow of the bourgeoisie and the establishment of a communist society where there would be no class distinctions or exploitation. Therefore, option C is the correct answer. Options A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect Marx's views on class relations.
