Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Marxism is a broad philosophy developed by Karl Marx in the second half of the 19th century that unifies social, political, and economic theory. It is mainly concerned with the battle between the working class and the ownership class and favors communism and socialism over capitalism.

Detailed explanation-2: -One of Kant’s greatest contributions to philosophy was his moral theory, deontology, which judges actions according to whether they adhere to a valid rule rather than the outcome of the action.

Detailed explanation-3: -Critical theory speaks mainly of the dynamics of power to protect those in power. On the other hand, Marxism is largely economic and focuses on what Karl Marx perceived as the exploitation of labor by the capitalist class.

Detailed explanation-4: -Marx’s most important contribution to sociological theory was his general mode of analysis, the “dialectical” model, which regards every social system as having within it immanent forces that give rise to “contradictions” (disequilibria) that can be resolved only by a new social system.
