Marxist

An individual, group, or perspective aligned with the theories and principles of Marxism, advocating for the analysis of society through the lens of class conflict, historical materialism, and the critique of capitalism. A Marxist interprets social, economic, and political phenomena as rooted in the dynamics of the capitalist mode of production, focusing on the exploitation of labor and the accumulation of surplus value. Marxists typically support transformative social change aimed at dismantling class hierarchies, achieving social equality, and establishing a socialist or communist society. The term also describes methodologies or frameworks influenced by Marxist theory in various disciplines.
