Karl Marx - The Victory of the Proletariat and the Fall of the Bourgeoi
Karl Marx - The Victory of the Proletariat and the Fall of the Bourgeoisie In the communistic Manifesto, Karl Marx writes of the proletariat working class on the verge of revolution due to the overwhelming oppression perpetrated by the middle class. Marx lays out a sequence of steps, which demonstrate the approach of the revolution, a revolution caused consequentially by the actions of the bourgeoisie. As the bourgeoisie constantly form new ways to revolutionize production, they invariably move toward a take wherein the working class discovers its oppression and turns to the only means of change possible, a complete revolution.Marx first discusses the indispensableness for the bourgeoisie to revolutionize instruments of production, an action necessary for the good of their own profit. The owners, who incessantly resolve personal worth into exchange value, (p. 828) attempt to derive new forms of production to minimize the callous cash payment owed to their workers in order to max imize the surplus of production. This ultimately leads to a great disassociation between the laborers and their product. In Alienated Labor, Marx describes the worker as poorer the more wealth he produces, the more his production increases in power and extent, (p. 791). Since the bourgeoisie undoubtedly wish to maximize the wealth produced by the laborer, their actions inevitably lead to the marginalization of the working class. distinct for cheaper, more effective means of production, the non-workers track down raw material from remote zones, invent new technologies for production, and generally separate workers from their own creations. In these ways, the bourgeoisie undeniably alter the dealings of production.As Marx said in Alien... .... They have exposed the world of injustice to the proletariat, who will burst asunder the conditions of the times in a new revolution that will bring an end to the bourgeois.In the modern industrial age of Karl Marx, the bourgeoisie perpetually revolutionize the instruments of production, altering relations of production, and most importantly, the relationship of human beings to the rest of society. In this revolutionizing, the bourgeoisie produce greater surpluses, but also their own grave-diggers, alienating the class that will churn up to reclaim their individual identities as human beings. For Marx, this change requires only time, and as the proletariat begin to realize the injustices of their positions in society, they will begin to recognize the necessity for revolution. The victory of the proletariat and the fall of the bourgeoisie are equally inevitable.
