The Communist Manifesto

Author: Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels

Marx and Engels’ revolutionary pamphlet still resonates today. Their fiery critique of capitalism and call for working-class uprising sparked movements that shaped the 20th century. Reading it, I was struck by how prescient some observations feel, even if their proposed solutions remain controversial. The authors’ passion bleeds through every page. While dense at times, it’s a fascinating window into a pivotal moment in history that continues to influence modern political thought.
