Hi, I am looking for someone to write an article on communist manifesto on religion, law and morality Paper must be at least 1250 words. Please, no plagiarized work! Marx’s theory of dialectical materialism asserts that conflicts between the social classes are triggered by material needs. The bourgeoisie class desires to maintain the status quo through controlling production whereas the proletariat class seeks to overthrow them and in turn control production. This paper is going to argue in favour of Marx’s claim that law, morality and religion are tools used by the rich to keep the poor in line.
The bourgeoisie class is the class or the rich because it controls production in the economy hence the ruling class. According to the Marxist philosophy, the law is a means by which the ruling class disadvantages the other classes (Engels & Marx, 2014). It is a fact that some legislations are meant to submerge the minds of the poor so that they can feel relevant within the economy. For instance, the laws on free trade work to the advantage of the rich within the economy since they can produce goods in large numbers and release them to the market at cheaper prices. This is evident when we consider the case of developed and third world economies having equal access to markets. Since the competition in the market will be unfavorable, weaker economies will be overpowered by stronger economies that will in turn control the markets. According to Marx, the bourgeois education policy perpetuates the subordination of the proletariats, ensuring that they do not own property (Engels & Marx, 2014). As such, the rich ensure that they continue to control the economy whereas the poor continues to be poor.
According to Marx, bourgeois moralities allow private property ownership and personal freedom and independence. It is therefore moral for one to own property just as it is moral for the property owner to employ the poor to work for them. He argues that wage labor creates no property for the employee, but only creates capital, which is a property that works to escalate abuse of workers. Freedom allows the capitalists to .constantly revolutionize production in order to expand and exploit their markets. This leads to globalization which in turn leads to economic imperialism which dictates that other countries acculturate to the bourgeois practice or be sent to the economic outback.
