Answer 4

With his partner, Friedrich Engels, Marx is generally considered the "father" of Communism. But not just communism - State Communism as practiced at large national levels. This is not the type of communism practiced in small tribal, religious and monastic communities.

If Marx were alive today he would deny paternity of every so called communist state, because the communism in place today is not the communism he envisioned. According to Marx communism would come about through economic forces, whereas communism today came about through political forces. This was Lenin's influence. Per Marx, there would be no state, or government. It would wither away being unnecessary. Communist countries today have super powerful governments. This was Stalin's influence. In addition, there would be no such thing as private property; however in most communist countries the state is the owner of most property.
