THE COMMUNIST MANIFESTO (PB)

‘Let the ruling classes
tremble at a Communistic revolution. The proletarians have nothing to lose
but their chains. They have a world to win. Workingmen of all countries
unite!’  Karl Marx  The Communist Manifesto came to be a widely
read and the most influential text ever written; it became one of the most
important political documents of the world. Marx and Engels presented how in
due course of time, socialism would end up replacing the prevailing
capitalist society. This monumental text discusses communists’ theory of
history and their relationship between the proletarians and the bourgeoisie.
‘Workers of the world, unite!’ emerged as the political slogan of The
Communist Manifesto.  The book,
originally published in 1848 in German, has been banned numerous times and
yet remains politically relevant across all times, continuing right from the
nineteenth to the twenty-first century.
