Revolution is the overthrow of the class that controls the state and the commanding heights of the economy by another class. Labor is inherent, labor-power is commodified labor. The working classes, through revolution, sieze control of the state and the commanding heights of industry, smashing the old capitalist state and replacing it with a proletarian one.

Revolution is the conquest of state power by a given class, legitimized through a monopoly on force and the commanding heights of the economy.
