UTILITARIANISM• POLITICAL PHILOSOPHY in late 1700’S by JEREMY BENTHAM

• GOVERNMENT SHOULD HAVE POLICIES THAT PROMOTE GREATEST GOOD FOR GREATEST NUMBER OF PEOPLE

• JS MILL FURTHERED UTILITARIANISM• UNREGULATED CAPITALISM IS WRONG• Womens’ rights; agric. co-ops; equal division of profits; legal, prison, educational reforms

Karl Marx

Communist Manifesto 1848• believe society is divided into warring classes• Capitalism helps “haves” (employers)• Hurts “have-nots,” (workers) •BOURGEOISIE = MIDDLE CLASS•PROLETARIAT = WORKERS

Page 27: World History | Chapter 25. Enlightenment Scientific Revolution Age of Exploration Reformation Renaissance

KARL MARX

“Workers of the world unite! You have nothing to lose but your chains!”

“From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs”

The Communist Manifesto did NOT influence the Revolutions of 1848

•Predicted workers would overthrow the capitalists in a revolution•Only proletariat would exist and rule•Eventually the State will wither away

Page 28: World History | Chapter 25. Enlightenment Scientific Revolution Age of Exploration Reformation Renaissance

Karl Marx

Communism — society where people own, share the means of production

Marx’s ideas later take root in Russia, China, Cuba

Marx’s version of communism was NOT a dictatorship. Has never really been tried.
