Description
The Communist Manifesto (Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition) A groundbreaking treatise on revolution and social change, The Communist Manifesto is a powerful call to action for the working class. Written by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, this influential work proposes a radical vision of a society without classes, private property, or a state. Marx and Engels argue that the exploitation of industrial workers will eventually lead to a rebellion against capitalism, resulting in a new theory of communism. Their ideas have shaped political systems in Russia, China, Cuba, and Eastern Europe, and continue to provoke debate on the nature of capitalism and class. This Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition features an authoritative text with introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.
