Point out the Marxian position of equality.

Answer»

Marxists refuse to accept the concept of natural equality.

  • Most of the social, economic and political inequalities existing in human relations today are historically created. They are therefore not natural. 
  • Since they are humanly created, they can be solved by human efforts. 
  • The origin of this inequality comes from the division between mental and physical efforts and from the division between primary producers and the owners of production. 
  • This division of labor led to the formation of two important classes. One class exploited the other. 
  • Therefore for the Marxists, the problem of the abolition of inequality is primarily the problem of the abolition of class dominance, exploitation and class distinction. 
  • Only in a society where there is no class distinction, can there be equality.
  • The social control theory of such a society will be not “Each person according to his ability, but each person according to his needs.”
