Книга: Karl Marx & Friedrich Engels: Selected Writings (подарочное издание)

Стильно оформленное подарочное издание в суперобложке, с шелковым ляссе и трехсторонним золотым обрезом. In 1848 a wave of revolutions broke over Europe. Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, in the 'Communist Manifesto', urged the workers of all countries to unite. But the movement collapsed and Marx became an exile in London, where he spent the next twenty years developing his great critique of the capitalist system. His monumental 'Capital' was constructed as a scientific study of political economy, but its driving force was Marx's sense of the burning injustices imposed on the working class by the Industrial Revolution, and their alienation from the society that their labour made possible. Marxism became a great secular creed, with dramatic consequences for the history of the last century. Even today, with the rich Western countries relying increasingly on low-wage production in the Third World, many features of Marx's analysis remain disturbingly relevant.
