Sociology
The ‘class polarization’ that Marx predicted referred to:
the division of each social class into the more or less privileged
a growing gap between rich and poor, resulting in class consciousness
the growth of intermediate strata in the middle classes
the tendency for the working class to live in very cold places
a growing gap between rich and poor, resulting in class consciousness
Marx famously distinguished between two main groups or social strata: the capitalist bourgeoisie (ruling class) and the subordinate proletariat (working class). He suggested that as capitalism developed, the former group, who were the owners and controllers of capital, would become concentrated as one large business power, squeezing out competition from the smaller capitalists. They would become increasingly aware of their interests and eventually control the state to their advantage. Meanwhile, those in the working classes would also amalgamate into one group, united by their poverty. The gap between the two groups would widen until it could no longer be ignored; Marx called this process polarization, resulting in class consciousness. 787-788
