Here is Question No. 14 a part of our series on UPSC Prelims 2020.
Q14. One common agreement between Gandhism and Marxism is
(a) the final goal of a stateless society
(b) class struggle
(c) abolition of private property
(d) economic determinism
Answer: A
- The final aim of both Gandhism and Marxism is the establishment of a stateless and classless society, however, their means for achieving this aim are different. For Mahatma Gandhi, in an ideal state, there is no State which he wanted to achieve through non-violent means but Marx, who saw the State is an instrument of oppression and an organ of the bourgeoisie that only works to maintain class dominance, wanted a stateless society by striving for class struggle and revolution.
