The Communist Manifesto

E-kniha

Commonly known as The Communist Manifesto, the Manifesto of the Communist Party (in German "e;Manifest der Kommunistischen Partei"e;) has been one of the most influential political documents in the world, having a far-reaching effect on twentieth-century political organization. In this 1848 publication, Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels expound the program and purpose of the Communist League who commissioned the work. A critique of the Capitalist order of the time, the Manifesto gives a vision of a stateless, classless society, achieved through the overthrow of bourgeois social systems and the abolition of private property - the revolution of the proletariat.
