Dual Revolution The Industrial Revolution which began in England around 1780. The French Revolution which rocked France in 1789.

Socialist Concerns Early French socialist thinkers were already aware that the political revolution in France, the rise of laissez faire economics and the emergence of modern industry in Britain were transforming society. They were disturbed because they saw these developments as promoting selfish individualism and splitting the community into isolated fragments. There was they believed, an urgent need for further reorganization of society to establish cooperation and a new sense of community.

Economic Planning Early French socialists believed in economic planning. Inspired by the emergency economic measures of 1793 and 1794 (the terror) in France. They argued that the government should rationally organize the economy and not depend on destructive competition to do the job Socialists believed that private property should strictly regulated or that it should be abolished and replaced by state or community ownership.

Henri de Saint Simon The key to progress was proper social organization The parasites (the court, aristocracy, churchmen) should give way to the doers- the leading scientists, engineers and industrialists. The doers would carefully plan the economy and guide it forward by undertaking vast public works projects and establishing investment banks.

Charles Fourier Saw a socialist utopia of mathematically precise, self sufficient communities made up of 1620 people. Fourier called for the abolition of marriage.

Louis Blanc Urged workers to organize for universal voting rights and to take control of the state peacefully. Blanc believed that the state should set up government sponsored workshops and factories to guarantee full employment.

Joseph Proudhon 1809-1865 What is Property? Nothing but theft.
Property was profit that was stolen from the worker. The worker was the source of all wealth.

Karl Marx 1848 Marx co-authored the communist manifesto with Friedrich Engels Engels had previously written the condition of the working class in England in 1844. Marx argued that the interests of the middle class and the industrial working class were inevitably opposed to each other. History of all previously existing society is the history of class struggle. With the coming of modern industry, society was split more clearly than ever before; between the middle class (bourgeoisie) and the modern working class (Proletariat)

Bourgeoisie vs. workers
Just as the middle class had triumphed over the feudal aristocracy, Marx predicted that the proletariat would conquer the bourgeoisie through a violent revolution.

3 Streams leading to Marxism
French Revolution Abrupt, total revolution Success of Bourgeoisie British Industrial Revolution Position of labor “condition of Working Class” Engels German Philosophy of Hegel

Philosophy of Hegel Dialectics
Thesis vs. Antithesis=synthesis Historic change comes through the clash of antagonistic elements. History is a process of development through time, logical and deterministic, everything happens in sequence by cause. Hegel saw primacy of ideas that cause change, Marx focused on economic reality.

Marxian view of Historical Development
Material conditions give rise to economic classes. Each class develops ideology suited to its needs. Prevailing religion, government, law, morals reflect the outlook of these classes

Class antagonism Agrarian Conditions produce landholding class
Changes in trade routes, money, productive techniques, leads to rise of Bourgeoisie Eventually Bourgeoisie and landholding class clash England 1642 France 1789

Development of Proletariat
As the Bourgeoisie develops there is a corresponding development in the proletariat. According to Marx the Bourg. Is defined as those who own capital Proletariat does not own capital Under competitive conditions the Bourg. Devour themselves The Proletariat then overthrows the Bourg. In a revolution.

Results of Proletariat revolution
Abolish private property/private ownership of capital Classless society results State withers Religion disappears

Marxist ideas Labor theory of value Surplus value theory
Value of any man-made object depended on the amount of labor put into it. Capital is the stored up labor of past times. Surplus value theory The worker is paid less than the value of his labor (e.g. product sells for $10 and the total worker wage is $3, according to Marx the worker has had $7 stolen from him) Capital therefore is accumulated surplus value that the prevailing system (gov’t, religion, law, education, etc.) has allowed the owner to steal from the worker.

Marxist ideas, cont. Workers must remain angry.
Union gains of higher wages were just more crumbs from the owners table. Even if the worker is paid $5 (referring to the previous example) he is still being robbed of $5. No Unions, No gov’t legislation (could the worker make real gains through a gov’t committed to protecting the ruling classes interests?)

Ideas from Communist Manifesto
The worker is deprived of the wealth he himself has created The state is a committee of the bourgeoisie for the exploitation of the worker Religion is a drug to keep the workingman quietly dreaming of his heavenly reward. “Opiate of the Masses” The working family has been prostituted and brutalized by the bourgeoisie The proletariat have no country
