 Horrors of Class System: A Marxist Critique of Mansfield’s Doll’s HouseSidra Ahmad, Selina Aziz and Salman Amin Journal of Business and Social Review in Emerging Economies, 2020, vol. 6, issue 4, 1361-1367 Abstract: The current paper talks about the horrors of the inescapable class system that has us hooked blindly. The basic issue lies in the fact that the society we live in and grow operates on the system of class consciousness. The rich /bourgeoisie class uses and abuses the low or poor class to attain maximum benefits from them, whereas the poor or the proletariat have no choice except to be manipulated by the rich class for the cost of labor, for they know that it is the only step towards survival and it lies in manipulation. The rich class has become totally dependent on the proletariat and they know they cannot move without and out of it. As the society is designed and planned on unequal footings so, on the one hand, the rich class has found a medium to exploit the labor class but at the same time the proletariat are not allowed to interact with them and furthermore there are bleak chances of unification as the lower/labor class is itself a stigma in the eyes of the bourgeoisie. Keywords: Bourgeoisie; Proletariat; economic power; commodification; superstructure; ideology; class consciousness; dialectical and historical materialism.
