A party manifesto may be defined as the cardinal plans or programme of a political party which the party intends to fulfill to the electorate if it is elected into power.

Bourgeoisie is understood as the ruling class, owner of the means of production, raw materials and holders of financial capital. The proletariat, on the other hand, represents the working class, which only owns its own labor force. This distinction is made on the basis of Marxist doctrine. For Karl Marx, throughout history, humanity developed from the antagonism between a ruling class and a class of individuals exploited by it. This he called the class struggle.
