The Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx
Marx and Engel's landmark treatise - in a graphic deluxe edition. One of the most important and influential political theories ever formulated, The Communist Manifesto is a revolutionary summons to the working class-an incisive account of a new theory of communism that would be brought about by a proletarian revolution. Arguing that increasing exploitation of industrial workers will eventually lead to a rebellion in which capitalism will be overthrown, Marx and Engels propose a vision of a society without classes, private property, or a state. The theoretical basis of political systems in Russia, China, Cuba, and Eastern Europe, The Communist Manifesto continues to influence and provoke debate on capitalism and class.
Karl Marx (1818-1883) and Friedrich Engels (1820-1895) are the principal theorists of revolutionary socialism. Marshall Berman is Distinguished Professor of Political Science at The City College of New York and the CUNY Graduate Center. A frequent contributor to The Nation and The New York Times Book Review, he is the author of five books and the co-editor of New York Calling: From Blackout to Bloomberg (2007). Killoffer is a co-founder of the independent comics publisher L'Association and is part of the OuBaPo collective.
