Manifesto of the Communist Party

Focusing on the class struggle and the conflicts inherent in capitalism, this influential 1848 pamphlet by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels analyzes historical and contemporary societal dynamics. Commissioned by the Communist League and published amid the Revolutions of 1848, it serves as a foundational text for communist ideology, emphasizing the importance of understanding the capitalist mode of production rather than forecasting the future of communism. Its impact on political thought and movements has been profound and enduring.
