class struggles
Class struggles refer to the conflicts and tensions between different social classes, primarily between the wealthy and the working class. These struggles often arise from disparities in wealth, power, and access to resources. Historically, they have been a driving force behind social change, influencing movements for labor rights, economic equality, and political reform.
The concept of class struggle is closely associated with the ideas of Karl Marx, who argued that the interests of the ruling class often conflict with those of the proletariat, or working class. This ongoing conflict can manifest in various forms, including strikes, protests, and calls for policy changes aimed at reducing inequality.
