The Communist Manifesto [Manifesto of the Communist Party] von Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels

The Communist Manifesto emerged in the mid-nineteenth century, when the Second Industrial Revolution was unfolding in Europe, and the working class began to have more and more importance. This working class was brutally exploited by the capitalist class, but its objectives were not clear. MARX AND ENGELS TRIED TO RAISE AND ORGANIZE THE WORKERS SO THAT THEY WILL ORGANIZE INTO A revolutionary workers 'party, a WORKERS' PARTY, TO TAKE POWER, destroy capitalism and create a communist society, without exploiters or exploited.

The Communist Manifesto (originally Manifesto of the Communist Party) is an 1848 political pamphlet by German philosophers Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. Commissioned by the Communist League and originally published in London (in the German language as Manifest der kommunistischen Partei) just as the revolutions of 1848 began to erupt, the Manifesto was later recognised 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 summarises 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.This case laminate collector's edition includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket.

The book has an active table of contents for readers to access each chapter directly. Marx and Engels presented an analytical approach to the class struggle and the problems of capitalism in the book, The Communist Manifesto. The book also contains their ideas for how the capitalist society of the time would be replaced by socialism, and then eventually communism. However, the book is lack of detailed potential future forms of communism. It was Lenin who took the theories of The Communist Manifest to the next level for delivery and implementation of a truly socialistic country.   Marx’s thought and Lenin’s path of building Soviets to address issues of Capitalism were catastrophic to the world. An estimated 70 million people died under the soviet regime. The human cost paid for his theory was enormous. Yet despite all this, Marx’s thought is still worshipped by millions by other countries including North Korea and the aged followers in China today. All of the essential predications by Marx in the work about world moving direction failed. However, history is a mirror for us. Reading the book, The Communist Manifesto, we can have a second thought on evolution of our social systems and avoid paying human cost we made in the past by socialistic countries including Soviets and China. This is a must-read book to understand the foundational thought of a communist party and the nature of a socialistic country.

Book Synopsis China Miéville's strikingly imaginative new introduction to the Communist Manifesto offers both a critical appraisal and a spirited defense of the modern world's most influential political document.Few written works can so confidently claim to have shaped the course of history as Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels's Manifesto of the Communist Party. Since first rattling the gates of the ruling order in 1848, this incendiary pamphlet has never ceased providing fuel for the fire in the hearts of those who dream of a better world. Nor has it stopped haunting the nightmares of those who sit atop the vastly unequal social system it condemns.Miéville provides readers with a guide to understanding the Manifesto and the many specters it has conjured. Through his unique and unorthodox reading, Miéville offers a spirited defense of the enduring relevance of Marx and Engels' ideas.Presented along with the full text of the Communist Manifesto, Miéville's guide has something to offer first-time readers, revolutionary partisans, and even the most hard-nosed skeptics. Review Quotes "In A Spectre, Haunting, China Miéville, mind, soul, and pen ablaze, guides his readers through Marx and Engels's unignorable, inextinguishable, eternally uncomfortable, and always essential Manifesto. This is both a history of critical thought and a magnificent exemplar of reading and thinking critically. Miéville has written a thrillingly lively and lucid exegesis on the Manifesto, its contents, and its discontents. He's gathered together an astonishingly heterogeneous array of voices and responses, making a case for the Manifesto as a locus of politically engaged analysis and argument for nearly two centuries. Miéville adjudicates and synthesizes with unfailing clarity, wit, courage, decency, and passion, writing brilliantly about nationalism, race, gender, literary style, and--my particular favorite section--about the perils and necessity of hate. He gives us a Manifesto that is simultaneously a central artifact of our species and a means for understanding our present, hazardous moment, a historical work that remains absolutely, ferociously alive."--Tony Kushner, author of Angels in America "It's thrilling to accompany Miéville, one of the greatest living world-builders, as he wrestles--in critical good faith and incandescent commitment--with a manifesto that still calls on us to build a new world."--Naomi Klein, author of On Fire and No Is Not Enough "China Miéville's elegant book patiently explains composition--style, structure, class--to reveal the Communist Manifesto's spectral energies. Reading with him today sharpens our senses to contemporary internationalist movements from below."--Ruth Wilson Gilmore, author of Abolition Geography and Change Everything "The Manifesto is one of history's most profound prophecies. In Miéville's brilliant interpretation it is like a great comet whose periodic return blinds the sky with its light and urgency. Read this and be dazzled by its contemporaneity."--Mike Davis, author of City of Quartz and Set the Night On Fire "With diligence and a ruthlessly critical eye worthy of Marx himself, China Miéville expands upon the Communist Manifesto, calling us into renewed struggle for the best of what humanity could be. Against the million little cruelties and death-making of capitalism, this book builds a case for the value of the Manifesto to today's struggles without demanding fealty. It turns long-standing complaints about Marx on their heads to challenge the reader even while seducing with luminous prose. I didn't know I needed this book, but I did."--Sarah Jaffe, author of Work Won't Love You Back and Necessary Trouble "China Miéville's A Spectre, Haunting, is a small miracle of interpretation, criticism and sympathetic imagination. In its subtle reconstruction of the Communist Manifesto, it swiftly dispatches the bad faith critics of Marx & Engels and revises common errors, even while it carefully unpacks what the Manifesto did get wrong. Incisive and witty, the book strikes with equal measures of dexterity and yearning the prophetic, utopian - and yet deeply practical, materialist - notes of a monumental text."--Richard Seymour, author of The Twittering Machine "An excellent book, very lively and engaging, written in clear and readable prose... much more than a contextual and analytical reading of the Manifesto... For today's readers Miéville does excellent work presenting and reviewing a huge amount of twentieth-century history."--Terrell Carver, University of Bristol "It would have been enough to have a thorough, learned, clear introduction to The Communist Manifesto from one of the greatest leftist authors of our time, but China Miéville's A Spectre, Haunting is also a serious and singular exploration of the vital principle of the Manifesto as a work of writing, a rhythmology of its bottomless fury and impassioned faith in a communist horizon."--Jordy Rosenberg, author of Confessions of the Fox "A book about another book might sound boring, but The Communist Manifesto is more than a book: it represents a bulging galaxy of historical struggle, ever moving and shining, even if only on the periphery of our vision. Here, China Miéville opens up the pages of the Manifesto and transmits the energy of communism across the pallid present. Close reading, historical essay, political commentary and a manifesto of sorts: A Spectre, Haunting is a rich, luminous reflection of and on a light that never quite goes out."--Andreas Malm, author of How to Blow Up A Pipeline "Very enjoyable and well done... properly scholarly and thorough in its apparatus of discussion and issue identification...lively, politically-driven appreciation."--Gregor McLennan, University of Bristol PRAISE FOR CHINA MIÉVILLE: "You can't talk about Miéville without using the word "brilliant'."--Guardian "One of our most important writers." --Independent "Miéville is gifted with an incomparable visionary imagination." --Financial Times "Miéville is regarded as one of the most interesting and freakishly gifted writers of his generation." --Daily Telegraph About the Author China Miéville is the multi-award-winning author of many works of fiction and non-fiction.
