Karl Marx was a German philosopher and he is more famous for communism. Karl Marx had different areas of excellence but he had earned more fame as the sociologist and politician. He first claimed for a state where government will be present. Marx himself was driven out of the state for this perspective. Along with Engels, Marx continued to develop his thoughts on communism. Marx had dreamt of a society where class will be absent. Class discrimination along with this will not be there. It has to be mentioned that the difference between the ruling class and the working class is the main reason behind the development of such a perspective.
