Abstract
*Winner of the New York Times Book Covers of the Year, 2017*
'Workers of the world, Unite!'
The Communist Manifesto is arguably the world's most influential political manuscript. Surviving through countless decades of revolution and counter-revolution, Marx and Engels' incendiary treatise remains as essential today as it was in 1848: providing a framework for the people's liberation as they struggle against systems of extreme oppression across the globe.
Urgent and alarmingly well-written, The Communist Manifesto resonates beyond the confines of history and political theory - issuing a call-to-arms in the fight to end crisis-ridden capitalism.
'As a force for change, its influence has been surpassed only by the Bible. As a piece of writing, it is a masterpiece'
