Which sociologist saw political conflict as the only means of promoting positive change for the underprivileged? G. William Domhoff C. Wright Mills Karl Marx Émile Durkheim

Answer: Karl Marx

Explanation: Marx was the creator of the idea of transforming the entire economic system in order to promote the rights of underprivileged members of society, that is, most often workers. According to Marx, the workers in the capitalist systems were in a very subordinate position, exploited, and the whole capitalist system rested on their backs. Therefore, according to Marx, it was necessary to start the working class raise awareness of its rights, and embark on a political struggle for workers' rights, with the ultimate goal of changing social relations and transferring the economy into the hands of the working class. Of course, this was not possible with negotiations, but Marx advocated a serious political struggle, conflict with established political structures and even revolution.
