Marxism views equality as a political concept and value that promotes bourgeois class interests. Marx advocated for the abolition of class society, as it presently exists in the form of capitalism, instead of equality. Marxs position concerning equality does not indicate a defense of everyones equality in terms of their personal needs; rather, he refers to the identical social position of men in classless societies. The concept of equality invokes the idea that all human beings have an equal worth regardless of their color, gender, race, or nationality. It maintains that human beings deserve equal consideration and respect because of their common humanity. Marxism posits that the struggle between social classes, specifically between the bourgeoisie or capitalists, and the proletariat or workers, defines economic.
