Question

views of socialist on private property with special emphasis on karl marx

Answer 1

By this, it is meant that when Marx said communism can be summed up by abolishing private property, he meant every single thing that people have, especially their houses.

Socialist ideas spread through Europe by the 1870s. An international body; called Second International was formed to coordinate these efforts.

Workers in England and Germany began forming associations so that they could fight for better living and working conditions. They also set up funds to help members in times of distress. They demanded reduced working hours and the voting rights. These associations worked closely with the Social Democratic Party (SPD) in Germany and helped it in winning the parliamentary seats. Similarly, a Labour Party was formed in Britain and a Socialist Party was formed in France by 1905. However, till 1914, the socialists did not succeed in forming a government in Europe.
