Economic determinism
（重定向自Economic determinist）
Economic determinism is a theory that economic relationships (such as being an owner or capitalist, or being a worker or proletarian) are the foundation on which all other social and political arrangements are built.
In the Marxist version associated with Karl Marx, the emphasis is on the proletariat, who are predicted to revolt and overthrow capitalism. Marxist thinkers have dismissed plain and unilateral economic determinism as a form of "vulgar Marxism", or "economism", nowhere included in Marx's works.
