Hello, I've been getting myself acquainted with Marxism, reading Das Kapital, the Manifesto, along with some of what Lenin wrote, in addition to other leftist ideas , like anarchism.
I understand, generally speaking, the role of the proletariat as a class and the workers movements within Marxist analysis and their role in terms of revolutionary processes, but I am not quite sure how to understand the service sector, which do not produce wealth quite like the proletariat does, the educational sector (i.e. teachers), or the science sector (i.e. biologists, phycisists, chemists, engineers, etc). Maybe someone can help me out here? Thanks in advance- :)
