By Ashley Crossman. Definition: As defined by Karl Marx, communism is a mode of production in which the means of production, as well as virtually every other aspect of social life, are controlled by those who participate in them most directly.
Karl Marx (1818-1883) was a revolutionary German economist and philosopher, and the founder of the Communist movement. Marx was writing against a backdrop of great industrial change.Overcrowded, newly industrialised cities were expanding, and much of the working class lived in great poverty.e described how the wealth of the bourgeoisie depended on the work of the proletariat. Therefore, capitalism requires an underclass. But Marx predicted that the continued exploitation of this underclass would create great resentment. Eventually the proletariat would lead a revolution against the bourgeoisie.
