Last night I played "Class Struggle", a 1978 #boardgame designed to teach #Marxist theory. The game was designed by Bertell Ollman, a professor of politics at NYU.
At the beginning of the game, players roll the "genetic dice" to determine their class: Capitalist, Workers, Farmers, Students, etc
Class Struggle obviously draws inspiration from Monopoly, but I think Cosmic Encounter (published in 1977) may have been inspiration for CS's asymmetric rules (depending on which class you play).
