The Communist Manifesto: The Original 1888 Edition

The Communist Manifesto is a political manifesto written by German philosophers Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. Published in 1848, it is one of the world’s most influential political texts. In it, Marx and Engels outline their vision of a society without class divisions, where workers own the means of production and share in the wealth they produce. They argue that history is defined by class struggle, with the ruling class exploiting the working class. The Manifesto calls for the overthrow of the existing order and the establishment of a communist society, where the state has withered away and there is no need for the oppressive institutions of capitalism. The Communist Manifesto has been translated into over 100 languages and has influenced political movements and thinkers around the world. —- ISBN: 9798390740651 | ISBN10: B0C1J3J6YX | ISBN-13: 979-8390740651
