Marxist Sociology

Marxist sociology is an approach that examines society through the lens of social class and economic power. It emphasizes how economic relationships, particularly ownership of resources and means of production, shape social structures, institutions, and people's lives. According to this perspective, society is divided between the ruling class (who control wealth) and the working class (who sell their labor), leading to inequality and conflict. Marxist sociology aims to understand these dynamics and advocate for social change toward greater equality by addressing underlying economic and class-based disparities.
