List and provide a detailed description of four of the factors Marx regarded as especially significant in the development of a class consciousness among the working class.
What will be an ideal response?
Class consciousness implies (1) an awareness of membership in a group defined by economic position, (2) a sense that this shared identity creates common interests and a common fate, and, finally, (3) a disposition to take collective action in pursuit of class interests. At some points in his work, Marx implied that only a group whose members experience such a consciousness can be defined as a class.
