In the “Communist Manifesto”, Karl Marx has social activist ideas that he shares with the world. He criticizes capitalism and says that is not the way people in society should live. He saw the Bourgeois as high-class oppressors and proletarians as poor class workers. He wanted to remove social classes from existing because he studied that Social classes only brought problems and war. As a Historical figure, Marx and his theories have changed the world and he has been a leader or at least someone to look up to . Although people like Stalin took his ideas to the extreme and made communism look like a terrible way of living, Marx’s ideas were not meant to become evil but more of a harmonious way of living where it was fair for everyone to live well and not have poor people mistreated by the rich.

As jessicak mentions in Escaping Static History , “In the 19th century historians began straying away from dry facts that may exclude certain facts percentages and numbers. By interpreting history we are able to find parts which were neglected because of their lack of “importance.” There was a change in how history was viewed and people like Karl Marx start to interpret things by how they intake it. I agree that we see things that are neglected through people who study events or situations and explain it and then other readers can see it through their eyes. To me Marx is an important historian that thought of things more critically and his ideas are studied throughout the world-changing the way they govern. He is an important figure that historians can look at and study his ideas and how they were adopted by many leaders and countries that till this day live by the communist law.
