Answer 1

The most accurate response regarding the different impacts of Karl Marx’s "Communist Manifesto" on Europe compared to other parts of the world is:

The “bourgeoisie” was interpreted to be the Western imperializing nations, such as England and the U.S.

In Europe, particularly in the context of the industrial revolution, Marx's ideas influenced the rise of socialist and communist movements that focused on class struggle between the proletariat and bourgeoisie. However, in other parts of the world, especially in nations experiencing imperialism or colonization, the term "bourgeoisie" was often seen through the lens of Western imperial powers. As a result, socialist movements in these regions adapted Marx's ideas to critique imperialism and colonialism rather than purely focusing on class struggles as defined within European society.

The other responses do not accurately capture the broader interpretations and applications of Marx's ideas outside of Europe.
