Detailed Solution

Karl Marx (1818-1883) and Friedrich Engels (1820-1895) were prominent socialists of 19th-century Europe.
They both contributed significantly to the field and theory of socialism and communism. According to Marx, the industrial society was "capitalist." Workers produced the profit for capitalists, who owned the capital used to establish industries. As long as private capitalists amassed this profit, working conditions could not improve.

Marx held that workers needed to create a genuinely socialist society where all property was collectively managed to be freed from capitalist exploitation.
