Description

The Housing Question by Frederick Engels In the late 19th century, a pressing issue arose in major industrial areas: affordable housing for workers. As industry expanded, so did the need for housing, leading to a shortage of suitable dwellings. In response, Frederick Engels wrote a series of articles on the topic, which were later collected and published. Engels' essays, originally published in 1872-73, highlighted the severe consequences of inadequate housing: skyrocketing rents, overcrowding, and even homelessness. His work remains relevant today, as workers continue to face significant challenges in finding affordable places to live. This collection of Engels' writings offers a thought-provoking exploration of the social and economic issues surrounding housing.
