It would perhaps be educational to look up "the role of force in history" versus the politically incorrect concept - from the standpoint of Marxism, "the role of violence." Force is simultaneously a political power and economic power. Violence is not. That is to say violence is not an economic power. When Marx wrote in Capital "force is the midwife of every society pregnant with the new" he discloses the economic content and meaning of force as an economic power. Engels does the same in "Anti-Durhing," with three segments devoted to this issue. When property is done away with social revolution will cease to take place based on force - class antagonism.
