On the tombstone of Marx in Haggitt Cemetery in London, a famous saying of Marx is engraved: "Philosophers only explain the world in different ways, but the problem is to change the world." This clearly shows that Marxism attaches importance to practice and takes transforming the world as its own responsibility and basic feature.

The famous philosophical thought founded by Marx is historical materialism, and its greatest wish is the all-round and free development of individuals. Marx founded the economic theory Das Kapital, and Marx established his principle of exposition as Critique of Political Economy. Marx thinks this is the "principle of political economy".

Marx believes that the destruction of the bourgeoisie is as inevitable as the victory of the proletariat. The Marxist theory jointly founded by him and Engels is regarded as a theoretical weapon and a guide to action to guide the working people all over the world in their struggle for socialist and communist ideals.

From the beginning of the 20th century to the middle of the 20th century, the spread of Marxism reached its peak through the Soviet Union established by Lenin and the Bolshevik Party. During this period, the contemporary interpretation of Marxism was questioned and disputed by many scholars. With the decline and disintegration of the Soviet Union, the political influence of Marxism has also weakened.

As a famous and far-reaching philosophical theory in modern times, Marxism is still active in all fields of academia, and its theoretical spirit is also used in the direction of government administration from time to time.
