Karl Karl Marx
Karl Marx was a 19th-century philosopher and economist who analyzed how economic systems influence society. He argued that capitalism creates inequality by concentrating wealth and power in the hands of a few (owners of production), while workers sell their labor and receive less than the value they produce. Marx believed this leads to class conflict, exploitation, and social injustice. He advocated for a system where workers control resources and production, aiming to create a more equitable society. His ideas have influenced politics and social movements, inspiring efforts to address economic disparities and promote social change.
