In Marxist socio-political thought, the dictatorship of the proletariat refers to a state in which the proletariat, or the working class, has control of political power. The short-lived Paris Commune, which ran the French capital for over two months before being repressed, was an example of the dictatorship of the proletariat. The Commune was regarded with admiration and awe by later Communist and leftist leaders, including Vladimir Lenin, Joseph Stalin and Mao Zedong.
