Who was Karl Marx?
Karl Marx
(1818-1883) was a political thinker and writer whose ideas brought about great social
and political
changes. He
was born in Germany. His ideas were the starting point
of communism. He believed that people who
own
property, the capitalist class, keep the workers down, so
that the
owners can become richer. He also thought that the workers would one day rise
against the capitalists and take control. His ideas later inspired
communist revolutions all over the world, notably the Russian
Revolution.
