Através dos milênios o homem se organizou para viver, de uma forma ou de outra, em sociedade. Aquela em que vivemos hoje predomina praticamente no mundo todo, calcada na propriedade, na moeda e no poder do Estado. Mas nem sempre foi assim. A família primitiva era organizada em grupos de interesses comuns, viivia em grupos e era regida pelo poder patriarcal ou materno. A Origem da Família, da propriedade e do Estado de Friedrich Engels é um livro...

Cuando un individuo causa un daño a otro sabiendo de antemano que las consecuencias van a ser mortales, está cometiendo un asesinato; en la presente obra, Friedrich Engels se propone demostrar que la naciente sociedad capitalista de la Inglaterra victoriana es culpable de asesinato, cada día, a cada minuto. Ella ha reducido al proletariado a un estado tal que, necesariamente, este cae víctima de una muerte prematura y antinatural. Si niega a miles...

The political tract in which Marx presented the core of his philosophy and revolutionary program, with an introduction analyzing its significance to the realities of today and to Marx's own times

Published in 1848, at a time of political upheaval in Europe, Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels's Manifesto for the Communist Party was at once a powerful critique of capitalism and a radical call to arms. It remains the most incisive introduction to the ideas of Communism and the most lucid explanation of its aims. Much of what it proposed continues to be at the heart of political debate into the 21st century. It is no surprise, perhaps, that The Communist...
