Historical materialism is a methodological approach to the study of society, economics, and history, first articulated by Karl Marx ( 1818 – 1883 ) as " the materialist conception of history ".

According to Karl Marx, industrialisation polarised society into the bourgeoisie ( those who own the means of production, the factories and the land ) and the much larger proletariat ( the working class who actually perform the labour necessary to extract something valuable from the means of production ).

Like Karl Marx, Lenin distinguished between the aspects of a revolution, the " economic campaign " ( labour strikes for increased wages and work concessions ), which featured diffused plural leadership ; and the " political campaign " ( socialist changes to society ), which required the decisive revolutionary leadership of the Bolshevik vanguard party.

Marxism – Leninism is a communist ideology, officially based upon the theories of Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels and Vladimir Lenin, that promotes the development and creation of an international communist society through the leadership of a vanguard party presiding over a revolutionary socialist state that represents a dictatorship of the proletariat.

* Karl Marx: In large part, added the historical dimension to an understanding of society, culture and economics.

The works of Karl Marx and Max Weber emphasized the relationship between religion and the economic or social structure of society.

Specifically, Karl Kautsky: After 1929, exiled Mensheviks such as Fyodor Dan began to argue that Stalin's Russia constituted a state capitalist society.

Sociology ’ s theorists such as Talcott Parsons and Karl Marx have both come up with theories for why they believe norms are needed in society.

Karl Marx described Capitalist society as infringing on individual autonomy, by basing it on a materialistic and commodified concept of the body and its liberty ( i. e. as something that is sold, rented or alienated in a class society ).

Their first action was to form an " anarchist appreciation society " called The Society for the Rehabilitation for Karl Marx and Ravachol ; next they appropriated union funds to flypost " Return of the Durruti Column ", Andre Bertrand's détourned comic strip.

The German political theorist and sociologist Karl Marx ( 1818 – 1883 ) was the primary founder of Marxism, although he himself wrote little about the nature of the dictatorship of the proletariat, with his published works instead largely focusing on analysing and criticising capitalist society.

Karl Marx posits that a society ’ s dominant ideology is integral to its superstructure.

" Eliade sees the widespread myth of the Golden Age, " which, according to a number of traditions, lies at the beginning and the end of History ", as the " precedent " for Karl Marx's vision of a classless society.

The former military officer Karl von Mirkowitsch made it acceptable both for society and ballroom, and since 1932 the Viennese Waltz has been present on ballroom dance floors.

In the response of Karl Marx to Hegel, those poles of idealism ( spiritual ignorance and self-understanding ) are replaced with categories of materialism, wherein, for Man, spiritual ignorance becomes “ alienation ” and self-understanding becomes the “ realisation of his species-being ”; thus, the transcendent end of history results in the human triumph over alienation, and the establishment of an objectively better society.

In contrast with Karl Marx and his adherents, Lassalle rejected the idea that the state was a class-based power structure with the function of preserving existing class relations and destined to " wither away " in a future classless society.

This new way of thinking about civil society was followed by Alexis de Tocqueville and Karl Marx as well.

Merton was able to illustrate this by referencing Karl Marx's prediction that as societies become more modern, the wealth will be concentrated amongst fewer people, and the majority of society would suffer from poverty and misery.

At the same time, Karl Marx was aware that most of the people living in capitalist societies did not see how the system shaped the entire operation of society.

Karl Marx proposed that, in a society where independent, private producers trade their products with each other, of their own volition and initiative, and without much co-ordination of market exchange, the volumes of production and commercial activities are adjusted in accordance with the fluctuating values of the products ( goods and services ) as they are bought and sold, and in accordance with the fluctuations of supply and demand.

Karl Marx thus established that, in a capitalist society, the creation of wealth is based upon " the paid and unpaid portions of labour are inseparably mixed up with each other, and the nature of the whole transaction is completely masked by the intervention of a contract, and the pay received at the end of the week "; and that:

What Karl Marx critically anticipated in the 19th century, with " The Fetishism of Commodities and the Secret thereof ", Guy Debord interpreted and developed for the 20th century — that in modern society, the psychologic intimacies of intersubjectivity and personal self-relation are commodified into and as discrete " experiences " that can be bought and sold.

Karl Marx rejected Comtean positivism but nevertheless aimed to establish a science of society based on historical materialism, becoming recognised as a founding figure of sociology posthumously.

Social theorists such as Karl Marx, Sigmund Freud, Max Weber, and Émile Durkheim, postulated that the modernization of society would include a decline in levels of religiosity.
