The founders of these systems see, indeed, the class antagonisms,

as well as the action of the decomposing elements, in the

prevailing form of society. But the proletariat, as yet in its

infancy, offers to them the spectacle of a class without any

historical initiative or any independent political movement.

Since the development of class antagonism keeps even pace with

the development of industry, the economic situation, as they find

it, does not as yet offer to them the material conditions for the

emancipation of the proletariat. They therefore search after a

new social science, after new social laws, that are to create

these conditions.
