Marxist criticism
Marxism is not a viable theory. Communities societies which are based on the principles developed by Karl Marx (1818-1883) have been oligarchies in which a small group of leaders controls the money and the guns and forces it’s polices on a population kept in the line through physical pressure. Even if communist countries were true Marxist societies and even if all of them had failed, Marxist theory would still give a meaningful way to understand history and current events. One could use Marxist to interpret the failure of Marxist regimes.
