«El manifiesto comunista» is the political treatise by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, published in 1974 by Editorial Ayuso in paperback (296 pages, Spanish).
Written in 1848, it sets out the foundations of Marxism: history as class struggle, the critique of capitalism, and the appeal to the proletariat to overthrow the bourgeois order and build a communist society.
Original title: Das Kommunistische Manifest. Includes an introduction and translation from the German by W. Roces and notes by D. Riazanov.
A work of interest to students of philosophy and history and to readers wishing to approach a fundamental text of Marxism.
Karl Marx was a German philosopher, social and political theorist, and revolutionary socialist. He developed the theory of historical materialism, analysing societal structure and change, particularly class struggle under capitalism, and predicting the system's ultimate replacement by communism. Marx co-authored The Communist Manifesto (1848) with Friedrich Engels, and undertook a critique of classical political economy in his magnum opus, Das Kapital (1867–1894). His ideas and their later development, collectively known as Marxism, have had enormous influence on intellectual, political, and social history, and have inspired revolutionary movements in many countries.
