Karl Marx and the Industrial Revolution



Karl Marx was a German. He believed that the way the factory's were run on industrial revolution was necessary to build a capitalist society which also led him to think it was a necessity precursor to the development of socialism and eventually communism. He was dismayed by the way workers were treated in the factory's and mills. He influenced workers of the world to unite in a worldwide revolution. He invented communism which came from the word common. He also quoted that " workers rather than landlords should control the factory's".I believe that his idea and perspective of the industrial revolution were correct, however he went wrong into inventing communism.
