The working class controlling the state to introduce Socialism: a short transition phase to a classless society.

Karl Marx
Lenin's "dictatorship of the proletariat" was never like Karl Marx's version. Lenin's dictatorship was preferable to him because he felt that the "proletariat" of Russia were not sufficiently aware of their class status as proletariat. He felt they needed a strong government run by a small group of people (the Bolsheviks/Communists) who would prevent them from trying to reverse the revolutionary gains of the revolution. If "his" version of the dictatorship of the proletariat were to be turned over to the workers of Russia in general as Marx had wanted, the people might have wanted a return to capitalism and an overthrow of socialism.
Karl Marx believed that the communist party should serve as the vanguard of the proletariat, leading the working class in overthrowing the capitalist system. The party's role is to organize and mobilize the proletariat towards revolution, to establish a dictatorship of the proletariat, and eventually usher in a classless society.
For Karl Marx the proletariat constituted the living embodiment of all the evils and all the promises of capitalism. As painful as capitalism was to the working class, that economic system was necessary to bring about the workers' revolution and the Dictatorship of the Proletariat.
Proletariat.In Marxism, the dictatorship of the proletariat denotes the transitional socialist State between the capitalist class society and the classless communist society.
Party of the Dictatorship of the Proletariat was created in 1990.
It did not happen because not enough of the workers understood how to run a government. Also, there was no money in the country.
Karl Marx coined the term "dictatorship of the proletariat" Ironically, it was not to be a dictatorship at all, but a democratic government. Marx called it the "dictatorship of the proletariat," but it would be a democratic government once the proletariat of workers revolted against the bourgeoisie and took over the means of production. Some form of government would still be necessary after the revolution. The "dictatorship" aspect meant that participation in it would be restricted to proletarians to the exclusion of the bourgeoisie. The main purposes would be to maintain order, but more importantly it would be to ensure the transition from capitalism to socialism by stamping out all vestiges of capitalism so that it would never return.
He predicted that the proletariat would be triumphant.
he meant communism. according to marx, the first step of a communist revolution was to establish a dictatorship of the proletariat, a totalitarian state. Next, the dictatorship could slowly dissolve away, leaving anarchy.
