The Communist Manifesto is considered one of the most impactful political writings in history. Penned by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels in 1848, it offers a thorough and logical examination of the class struggle and challenges within capitalism. Released before Capital, this book became a key platform for European socialist and communist parties in the 19th and early 20th centuries. It delves into Marx and Engels' thoughts on society and politics. This timeless work reflects the authors' materialistic view of history, covering the evolution from feudalism to 19th-century capitalism, set to be overthrown by a new workers' society. The communists, leaders of the working class, aimed to eradicate private property and empower the proletariat as the ruling class. The Communist Manifesto begins with the striking words "A spectre is haunting Europe - the spectre of communism" and closes with "The proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains. They have a world to win. Workingmen of all countries, unite."
