About The Communist Manifesto: 1888 Translated Edition
“The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles. Freeman and slave, patrician and plebeian, lord and serf, guildmaster and journeyman, in a word, oppressor and oppressed, stood in constant opposition to one another, carried on an uninterrupted, now hidden, now open fight, that each time ended, either in the revolutionary reconstitution of society at large, or in the common ruin of the contending classes.” ― Karl Marx, The Communist Manifesto This pocket edition is designed to be convenient enough to easily fit in a pocket, purse, briefcase or backpack, but with text large enough that it is easy to read, and margins large enough to be marked up by students of any age. This new edition, reproducing the 1888 authorized English translation of Marx and Engels's work of political theory. The translation in this edition is the translation authorized by Engels, by Samuel Moore (1838-1911). The Communist Manifesto (officially Manifesto of the Communist Party) is an 1848 political manifesto by German philosophers Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels that laid out the program of the Communist League. Originally published in German (as Manifest der kommunistischen Partei) just as the revolutions of 1848 began to erupt, the Manifesto has since been recognized as one of the world's most influential political manuscripts. It presents an analytical approach to the class struggle (historical and present) and the problems of capitalism and the capitalist mode of production, rather than a prediction of Communism's potential future forms. The Communist Manifesto contains Marx and Engels' theories about the nature of society and politics, that in their own words, "The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles". It also briefly features their ideas for how the capitalist society of the time would eventually be replaced by socialism, and then finally Communism. A Best Seller Classic that Belongs to all Booklover's Library.
