Multiple choice

Directions: Answer the given question based on the following passage:

A struggle against this accentuation of money is absolutely essential. Linked as it is to the immanent tendencies of contemporary capitalism, this struggle cannot but set for itself the conscious objective of transcending capitalism. Though the precise manner of this transcendence, the stages through which it may come about and linkages between struggles in different countries are matters that cannot be answered speculatively but require theoretical resolution on the basis of concrete praxis, the necessity of such transcendence is indubitable for anyone who is concerned with human freedom as it is this theory of transcendence that provides illumination.

What is the underlying idea of the passage?

  1. To ensure human freedom from the baneful effects of capitalism

  2. To trace the immanent tendencies of contemporary capitalism

  3. To determine the history of capitalism

  4. To work out the methodology of tackling the problem of amassing of money

  5. To prove that the theory of transcendence provides illumination
