Aspects Of Migili Verb Phrase

ABSTRACT

The concept of class struggle refers to the ongoing battle between the existing strata in every society. The goal of this academic research is to investigate the meaning and significance of class struggle in the context of the chosen texts.

This study’s theoretical basis is Marxist-Leninist theory, which may be summarised as the exploited’s reaction to get rid of exploitation and the exploiters.

The several styles employed by the duo of Iyayi and Falls are described. Class conflict is viewed as a necessary means of alleviating societal pressures caused by inequality and injustice.
Chapter one

1.1 Introduction

The concept of class struggle refers to a perpetual fight between the existing layers in society. The themes of class struggle were described in Animata Sow Fall’s The Beggars’ Strike and Festus Iyayi’s Violence.

Class struggle becomes a necessity in any society with a big difference between the ‘haves’ and the ‘have nots’. This scholarly study investigates the extent to which Animata and Iyayi used the idea of class conflict in their novels The Beggars’ Strike and Violence, respectively.

1.2 Background.

Karl Marx wrote to Friedrich Engels in 1882: “You know very well where we found our idea of class struggle; we found it in the work of the French historians who discussed the race struggle.” Class conflict predates Karl Marx; one could confidently claim that it describes the history of all human civilisations.

Social classes are frequently classified as upper, middle, or lower based on income, wealth, or estate. However, in a capitalist system, the Marxist concept of class is predicated on control over the means of production. Karl Marx defines two major classes:

§ Proletarian (Labour)

§ Bourgeoisie (capitalist)

The Proletariat (labour) earns a living directly from their labour, whereas the Bourgeoisie controls the means of production, exploiting the proletariat and profiting from the surplus value of cheap labour. This may be interpreted as a type of neocolonialism, in which work is exploited to achieve economic and sociopolitical supremacy.

A most horrible type of Apartheid in postcolonial Africa, perpetrated by Africans against other Africans. The masses, burdened with terrible poverty and hunger, will inevitably rebel against oppression. The resulting conflict, while frequently violent, is not uncommon to be nonviolent.

In the selected works, forms of class struggle include industrial strike activities, protests, rallies, pilferage, sabotage, and so on. Class conflict in Africa is strongly tied with corruption and injustice. Class conflict is viewed as necessary in an unjust society when wealth is unequally distributed and the rule of law is biassed.

It becomes the only viable choice for the people to compete for economic and social relevance. Class struggle is a daring attempt to transform capitalism into a more fair system of governance, resulting in a truly egalitarian, economically sustainable, and politically stable nation. Class struggle is a daring step towards creating a real utopian society, the ultimate Marxist phantom.

1.3 Aim of Study

This study is a modest attempt to shed light on the concept of class struggle in Africa. Based on the writings of two prominent proletarian writers, Animata Sow fall and Festus Iyayi, in their works – The Beggars’ Strike and Violence, the following objectives were identified:

§ Define and describe class idea.

§ Identify and describe the sorts of classes in selected texts.

§ Definition of class struggle:

§ Compare and contrast francophone and Anglophone African societies in terms of class and conflict.

§ Identifying the advantages and disadvantages of class strife.

§ Addressing class conflict in Africa with practical solutions.

§ Providing trustworthy responses to research questions established at the start of the project.

1.4 SCOPE OF THE STUDY

This study focusses on Africa, with Senegal and Nigeria serving as case studies, as portrayed by Animata and Iyayi in The Beggars’ Strike and Violence, respectively.

This study looks into how understudied works reveal the existence of class struggle as well as other sub-themes such as oppression and negritude in francophone and Anglophone African contexts.

The choice of works based on Senegal and Nigeria is inspired by the fact that the two countries provide a fair representation of West Africa from both the Francophone and Anglophone perspectives. This is critical since it is almost probably impossible to analyse works from all throughout Africa given time and resource restrictions.

1.5 Justification of Study

This research is significant not only because it provides a solid source of information for future scholars on class struggle, but also because it is useful in assessing democratic values in Africa. Understanding the role of class struggle in society would help Africa’s emerging democracy and promote good governance.

This research is also a celebration of the great African writers, Animata Sowfall and Festus Iyayi, for their artistic inventiveness and skill.

1.6 Methodology and Theory

This study is both qualitative and descriptive, including a thematic analysis of the texts. The issues of class conflict, as well as associated sub-themes such as poverty, rule of law, and democracy, were thoroughly examined.

This study is founded on the Marxist-Leninist theory of society, which can be summarised as follows: the exploiters oppress the exploited, while the exploited try to escape both exploitation and the exploiters.

The sample frame is Senegal and Nigeria, which were the settings of the selected works. This research also used demographic analysis as well as a basic overview of the

Characters and artistic styles used by the authors.
