socialist revolution

A socialist revolution refers to a significant social and political upheaval aimed at transforming society from capitalism to socialism. It typically involves the working class rising up against the ruling class to establish a system where resources and production are owned collectively or by the state, rather than by private individuals. The goal is to eliminate economic inequalities and ensure that the wealth generated by society benefits everyone, not just a few. Historical examples include the Russian Revolution of 1917 and various movements throughout the 20th century aimed at redistributing power and wealth.
