We have already spoken of the reason why the proletariat above all was predestined to develop these ideas. But there is one special aspect on which I now want to dwell a little further. True it is that what Karl Marx brought to expression in his book (and those which he wrote in collaboration with Engels) has been considerably modified since then. Yet the changes are small compared to the basic impulses which these thoughts contain. And though the statement only holds true in a modified form, nevertheless in general we can say: Throughout the countries of the civilized Earth, from the extreme West to Russia, the proletariat are dominated by the Marxist impulses, albeit no longer explicitly by the precise outlines of the Marxist thoughts. And the conscious thinking about the social structure appears in a quite peculiar form in this modern, Marxist, proletarian thinking.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"I.

Aber über einen besonderen Gesichtspunkt möchte ich noch ergänzende Bemerkungen machen. Gewiß, das, was Karl Marx in seinen Büchern und in denen, die er mit Friedrich Engels zusammen geschrieben hat, zum Ausdruck gebracht hat, ist ja vielfach abgeändert worden. Aber die Abänderungen sind viel geringer als die Grundimpulse, die eigentlich in diesen Dingen sind. Und man kann, trotzdem dieser Ausspruch nur sehr modifiziert gilt, im allgemeinen doch sagen: Über alle Länder der zivilisierten Erde hin, vom äußersten Westen bis nach Rußland hinüber, werden die Proletarier beherrscht, wenn auch heute nicht mehr ausgesprochen von den Konturen der marzistischen Gedanken, aber von den marxistischen Impulsen.
