Essay / Research Paper Abstract
A 4 page essay/research paper that discusses the factors of an original revolutionary theory, which attempts to explain the processes of revolution by borrowing its basic premise from Marx, but follows the analogy originated by Crane Brinton, which compares revolution the processes involved in sickness, that is, symptom, fever and recovery (Medvedex, 2003). An additional element to this perspective on revolutionary theory is an original component that states that an additional "symptom" of revolution is when the ruling class of a society subscribes to a vision of national identity that does not fit with the working class reality of the proletariat. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

philosophy are predicated on Marxs theory of history, which regards human history as a continuous struggle between socio-economic classes (Witt, et al, 1980). According to Marx, a particular class could
rule over the rest of society only so long as that class best represented the economically productive forces of that society. When it no longer fulfilled this function, it would
be destroyed and replaced in an ongoing continuously dynamic process. Marx felt that this process would eventually culminate in a classless society (Witt, et al, 1980). While history has
largely disproved many of Marxs theories, this revolutionary theory proposes that his ideas on disparities between the classes forming the root cause of revolution were correct. For example, radical differences
