Answer 1

Answer:

The theory of 'historical materialism' is very much associated with the names of Karl Marx and Engels, the champions of Communism. The theory of historical materialism is also known as the materi0alistic interpretation of history.Central to Marx's thought is his theory of historical materialism, which argued that human societies and their cultural institutions (like religion, law, morality, etc.) were the outgrowth of collective economic activity. Marx's theory was heavily influenced by Hegel's dialectical method.Materialism simply means that it is matter or material reality, which is the basis for any change. According to Friedrich Engels, the theory of historical materialism was discovered by Karl Marx, but Marx thought it was Engels who has conceived the materialist formulation of history independently.
