Definición

  • The dictatorship of the proletariat is a key concept in Marxist political theory, in which the state is seen as an institution for class rule, a “dictatorship” of one social class over another. In the course of fighting for socialism, the working class must overthrow and destroy the existing capitalist state and replace it with an instrument for working-class rule—the dictatorship of the proletariat—organized on a radically different basis.
