Karl Marx is quoted as stating “Revolution is necessary…not only because the ruling class cannot be overthrown in any other way, but also because only in a revolution can the class which overthrows it rid itself of the accumulated rubbish of the past and become capable of reconstructing society.” Perry continues by stating that the “working class revolutionaries would smash the government that helped the capitalists maintain their dominance. They would confiscate the property of the capitalists, abolish private property, place the means of production in the workers’ hands, and organize a new society.” (pg. 345) His communist views are detailed in the Communist Manifesto, and were used when the Bolsheviks came to power in Russia during World War One, making Russia pull out of the war altogether. Using the reading (pg. 426-430).
