What were some of the main ideas of communism?

Answer 1

Communism, as meant by Marx, Engels, Lenin, Trotsky and others, seeks to overthrow capitalism and the rule of the capitalist class and establish a Dictatorship of the proletariat. That is, a state that will openly serve the interests of the working class and repress the capitalists if the situation calls for it, with violence if necessary. A socialist society will then be built while spreading socialism throughout the world. When there is socialism and stability throughout the world, a transition process will be undertaken to mmove towards a classless society free of war, poverty, racism, sexism, homophobia, etc.

Answer 2

Communism is a political and economic ideology that advocates for collective ownership of the means of production, a classless society, and the elimination of private property. It aims to create a fair and equal society where resources are distributed based on need rather than profit. Central to communism is the idea of workers controlling their own labor and the government acting as a tool to achieve equitable distribution of wealth.

Answer 3

One unique idea of communism is that government would wither away and disappear as being unnecessary once everyone believed in the communist way of life. Also the idea that Marx suggests is the recourse economics of it, although not a lot of Marxists states have took this. It's still a unique aspect which has never been included in Political Philosophy.

Answer 4

Communism is a sociopolitical revolutionary movement that advocates for the abolition of all social and economic boundaries, such as currency and class distinction. Additionally, communism endorses common ownership in regards to the means of production; in other words, everyone is responsible and accountable for the production of goods and services. As an ideology, communism aims to establish social order and stability by means of absolute egalitarianism. It has strong ties to socialism (though they are not synonymous), both of which were developed by a political philosopher named Karl Marx.
