The class applauded" Good day everyone. I'd like to speak on The Similarities and Differences of the Classes of Bourgeoisie and Proletariat." Gbemisola started."The terms bourgeoisie and proletariat were both defined by Karl Marx and form part of the theory named after him. Simply put, the bourgeoisie are the people who own the means of production, and the proletariat are the workers who produce those goods. We might today refer to them as the 1% and the 99%, although without the heavy condemnation that Marxist theory bestows upon the bourgeoisie.

There are many characteristics involved in this field that makes it challenging to narrow down. The biggest separation on this topic is the split between left-wing terrorism and right-wing terrorism. Left-wing (or progressive) terrorism is mostly associat
