According to whom ‘the existence of different social classes is the source of conflict’ ?
Karl Marx
Karl Marx held that the history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggle. For him, classes arise from ownership or non-ownership of the means of production, and the very existence of opposed classes such as bourgeoisie and proletariat is the source of conflict.
Because the owning class appropriates surplus value produced by the working class, their interests are structurally opposed. Marx argued that this contradiction drives social change, producing revolutionary transformation from one mode of production to the next, so the statement in the stem directly expresses his class theory of conflict.
Ralf Dahrendorf located conflict in the unequal distribution of authority within imperatively coordinated associations rather than in property-based classes. Lewis Coser stressed the positive, integrative functions of social conflict. Randall Collins developed a conflict theory centred on stratification, interaction rituals and organisational resources. All three built on or revised Marx, but the class-based statement belongs to Marx himself.
Karl Marx option is correct.
