The Communist Manifesto

About the Author

Karl Marx (1818-1883) was a German philosopher, economist, and political theorist whose ideas have had a profound impact on modern political movements. Friedrich Engels (1820-1895) was a German philosopher, social scientist, and Marx's close collaborator. Together, they co-authored The Communist Manifesto, which laid the foundation for Marxist thought and has influenced revolutionary movements around the world.
