"class war" (another typical marxist concept, used by, say, RAF (Baader-Meinhof) in Germany and BR in Italy. In fact it exists at least seven significant social classes of rank and income, not two, i.e. the division in "people" and "authorities" are a simplification. The "people" defined as the persons with relatively lowest rank and income are usually only a small part of the population, sometimes called the marginalized. As a small group of the people broadly defined, this group must appeal to the solidarity of the rest of the people, to get better off. They usually do not have the recourses to free themselves alone. Hard and violent actions will usually only increase the coercion and marginalization. The people broadly defined, as a probable clear majority of the population, includes both the low and middle income classes, as well as the autonomous class of rank, i.e. selfemployed on individual and co-operative basis and relatively independent and educated consultants and similar functionaries in the hierarchic enterprises without subordinates, and a relatively free position vis-à-vis the superiors, in public and private sector, and the "bottom line" skilled and non-skilled workers, houseworkers, and lower functionaries in the hierarchic enterprises in private and public sector. Furthermore the unemployed, persons with disability and partial incapacity, old, sick, students and political prisoners, are among the people. anarchy.no/klasse.html
