Class and Classless Communism: A Moral Critique
Abstract
In an attempt to place society on a sound moral foundation, Plato advocated class communism. Marx in an effort to put to rest the injustice, inadequacies and inequalities engendered by class distinction among men, postulated a classless communism. Although the practicability of communism has made many to dismiss it as utopian, this paper undertook to re-examine the implications of these two types of communism from a moral perspective. It concludes that whether class or classless communism, a significant moral injustice is inescapable in an attempt to implement either of them in the community of men.
