Marxism Study as a School Extracurricular Discipline.

Marxism is an extracurricular study of political and historical science in many high schools and universities. Possessing poor and insufficient knowledge in this subject and area of interest, many people dedicate most of their free time to studying this discipline as an extracurricular activity. Trying to create a utopia based on ‘Gargantua and Pantagruel,’ a novel written by François Rabelais, many people resort to various ways for making their own society as perfect as possible. Tommaso Campanella’s satiric novel ‘The city of the sun’ is another example of the novel, where the word ‘utopia’ is being mentioned. The whole novel is dedicated to perfect society’s creation. ‘Marxism’ the concept invented by Carl Marx and Frederick Engels is another example of utopia, a modern one. Unlike others, it became more serious for the commonwealth of the independent states since the former USSR tried to realize the idea completely. Unfortunately it did not work.

The following list covers essential points of Marxism and its most vital ideas that you can use in your assignments writing and papers writing.

1.      Creation. Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche, German philosopher and theorist creates the idea of the god’s death. He does not actually consider the absence of his/her existence. Nietzsche clearly states, ‘The God has died.’ By saying this Nietzsche means people and society’s responsibility for that.

2.      Realization. Having destroyed bunch of churches and executed a great number of people, the communist dictatorship actually eliminates the third ladder of spiritual human existence, namely god and immortal life, making most of the people secular. The world outlook is being basically turned upside down because nowadays the belief in spiritual human growth is destroyed.

3.      Outcome of the concept. Having collapsed and being technically inefficient, the attempt to create a perfect society demonstrates that people themselves are not perfect and ideal. Certain types of government structure and organization (socialism, capitalism) may work out even though some of them neither please nor satisfy certain people.
