Part of a series on. The proletariat (/ËproÊlÉªËtÉÉriËÉt/ from Latin proletarius) is a term for the class of wage-earners, in a capitalist society, whose only possession of significant material value is their labor-power (their ability to work); a member of such a class is a proletarian. 1 Usage in the Constitution of the Roman Republic.
But Marx's quick one-paragraph (Section1.46) dismissal of the lumpenproletariat makes it clear that by proletariat he specifically means employed workers. After all, elsewhere in the Manifesto, he defines the proletariat as a class of labourers, who live only so long as they find work, and who find work only so long as their labour increases capital.
