Science is a process of observation and experimentation, to establish fact (or at least a decent working model).

Common sense is just the mass-acceptance of some-odd "fact", whether it's factual or not.

Key concepts of Marxist sociology include historical materialism (predictable development over time), modes of production and the relation between capital and labor.
