Definition
无产者 is the Chinese term for 'proletarian', a Marxist concept referring to members of the working class who do not own the means of production and must sell their labor to survive. It is a political and sociological term, distinct from the everyday word 工人 ('worker'). You'll encounter it in historical or ideological texts, especially discussions of class struggle, socialism, and the Communist movement.
