Marx's theories about society, economics and politics—collectively understood as Marxism hold that human societies develop through class struggle.

"Experimental flight Apollo-Soyuz", commonly referred to by the Soviets as "Soyuz-Apollo"), conducted in July 1975, was the first joint U.S.–Soviet space flight, as a symbol of the policy of détente that the two superpowers were pursuing at the time.

This mission ceremoniously marked the end of the Space Race that had begun in 1957 with the Sputnik launch.[Source : Wikipedia]
