Book Review: The Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx
“The Communist Manifesto” by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels is a short book highlighting what was at the time of 1848 the fight of the laboring (proletariat) class from the wealthy and exploitive class (the bourgeoisie.)
I recommend this read – more so – as an understanding of the socio-historical context of its time of publishing.
