Abstract: Class interest education is an important part of ideological and political education delivered to the proletariat and the broad masses of the people from Marx and Engelss perspectives. In the era of capitalism, interests have gradually become the premise of social principles and human ties, as outlined in the classic writings of Marx and Engels. With much elaboration, they explained the general opposition of interests in the society, and consequently, the struggles and conflicts between classes it leads to. They revealed how the proletariat should realize the fundamental interests of itself and the masses of the people and extensively and comprehensively be engaged in class interest education. Through investigating and sorting out these arguments, we can systematically and deeply grasp the historical premise, core essence and functional significance of class interest education as perceived by Marx and Engels, which facilitates the further analyses of the interest relations and the education of the masses to understand, grasp and seek their own fundamental interests in the light of the development of the times on a Marxist textual and theoretical basis.

Key words: ideological and political education, class interest education, interests of the proletariat
