dictatorship of the proletariat

名词 n.

英文释义

名词 n.
  1. A socio-political power characterized by a struggle to achieve a communist society, as opposed to the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie. Marxism,countable,uncountable
    — If a revolution is to be victoriously carried through, it will require a concentrated power, a dictatorship at its head. Cromwell's dictatorship was necessary in order to establish the supremacy of the English bourgeoisie; the terrorism of the Paris Commune and of the Committee of Public Safety alone succeeded in breaking the resistance of the feudal lords on French soil. Without the dictatorship of the proletariat which is concentrated in the big cities, the bourgeois reaction will not be done away with.

词源

Calque of German Diktatur des Proletariats.
Initially worded as Diktatur der Arbeiterklasse “dictatorship of the working class” and Klassendiktatur des Proletariats “class dictatorship of the proletariat”, both attested earliest in Karl Marx's series The Class Struggles in France, 1848–1850 [1850].
Two early appearances of the precise wording Diktatur des Proletariats “dictatorship of the proletariat” are in:
* Joseph Weydemeyer's article “Die Diktatur des Proletariats” [1 January 1852]; and
* Marx's letter to Weydemeyer [5 March 1852].
