you say? Click on its number.
Historical

The
future is completely unpredictable
There
will always class divisions in society, with some people being oppressed by
others
Historical

Which best describes the view of Marx?
(2) is wrong, because Marx thought that in the end the process of history
would produce a communist society lacking in class division. He thought that
a correct understanding of history would allow you to work out what will happen
next - so (3) is wrong. Freedom for the individual comes only in the final
development of the communist society, so (4) is misleading.
(1) seems to me to express one of his most interesting thoughts.
