He was also eager to change the structure of capitalism and establish new institutions in society. Based on these views, Marx divided society into two - the Substructure and Superstructure. Marx asserted that the superstructure consists of the political, religious, education, marriage, and health institutions of society. Furthermore, he maintained that the superstructure is strongly influenced by the substructure or economic base of society. What is your understanding of the concept "substructure" as explained by Man? A The main focus of the Marxist theory has been class conflict or class struggle, between those who own the means of production and those who de not. He explained the substructure as the struggle over scarce resources between social classes in society, especially between the bourgeoisie (Le. those who own the means of production) and proletariat - the workers who offer their labour in exchange for a wage in order to survive.

A. Migration and industrial revolution are closely intertwined. Without industrial revolution there would be no migration. Migration meant that cities were buzzing with people who wanted better lives for themselves and their families. Their families encouraged them to move quite quickly and unapologetically to the cities. The mass movement of people from villages to cities subsequently lead to unanticipated effects such as overcrowding. prostitution and unemployment etc. B. The industrial revolution led to migration because the general population in the villages were bored of working in the cottage industries. They were in search of adventure and excitement. Their families encouraged them to move quite quickly from the villages to the cities. There was a huge demand for success in these factories and only ambitious young people were brave enough to work in these imposing factories. The mass movements of people from the villages to the cities led to unanticipated consequences such as overcrowding, unemployment and prostitution etc. C. The industrial revolution began with the invention of the steam power engine. This engine meant that factories could be developed to produce more at a faster rate. The development of these factories meant that little cottage industries in villages and small towns were being overtaken by these large factories located mainly in the cities. There was a huge demand for labour to power these machines. These factories presented ample opportunities for employment for individuals. These individuals therefore moved from the villages to the cities to take up these jobs.
