Karl Marx explained the process of class struggle with the help of which one of the following theories?

Explanation

Karl Marx explained the process of class struggle with the help of Dialectical Materialism.

  • Dialectical materialism is a philosophical and sociological theory that emphasizes the role of social conflict in historical change.
  • It argues that history progresses through a series of clashes between opposing forces, such as the ruling class and the working class.
  • Marx believed that these conflicts would ultimately lead to a socialist revolution and a classless society.

The other options are not as relevant to Marx's theory of class struggle

  • Empirical Liberalism focuses on individual rights and freedoms, not class conflict.
  • Existentialism is a philosophical movement that emphasizes individual freedom and responsibility.
  • Darwin's theory of evolution explains the development of species through natural selection, not social change.
