The Communist Manifesto

"A spectre is haunting Europe—the spectre of communism." Often cited, frequently misunderstood, Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels's political pamphlet expounds on the idea that society is bitterly divided by class struggles that benefit the owners of the means of production, and here they urge workers to instead unite and create a classless society. This book includes the complete text, along with helpful annotations, biographical sketches of Marx and Engels, and the authors' prefaces to six international editions.
