"The Class Struggle"

"The Class Struggle" is the ongoing conflict between different social and economic groups, primarily between those who control resources and wealth (the bourgeoisie or capitalists) and those who sell their labor (the working class or proletariat). It reflects how economic interests shape social relations, power, and institutions. Historically, this conflict influences movements for rights, reforms, and revolution, as workers seek better conditions and fairer distribution, while capitalists aim to maintain their dominance. The concept underscores the idea that societal change is driven by these economic and social tensions rooted in class differences.
