Communism Also known as Socialism or Marxism

Founding Fathers Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels 19th century German philosophers

Basic Ideas of Communism Individual ownership of property ends. All property is owned communally by all of the people. Government controls the whole economy. Economic decisions are made to benefit the people as a whole.

Everyone is expected to contribute to the economy based upon his ability and to receive goods and services based upon his needs. A classless society in which everyone is equal is created. Religion, “the opiate of the masses,” is abandoned. Communism is spread around the world creating a stateless society.

Communist Terms Proletariat- working class Bourgeoisie- merchant class Means of Production- factories Classless Society- everyone is equal Dictatorship of the Masses- strong communist government

Using the Terms The ___________ will rise up and seize the __________ from the __________ and then create a __________ to help build a new ___________.
