The Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels is a revolutionary political pamphlet that outlines the principles of communism and calls for the overthrow of capitalist systems. Published in 1848, it argues that history is shaped by class struggles and that the proletariat (working class) must rise against the bourgeoisie (capitalist class) to establish a classless, stateless society. The manifesto critiques capitalism’s exploitation of labor, promotes collective ownership of resources, and envisions a future where economic and social inequalities are eradicated. A cornerstone of socialist thought, it remains one of the most influential political texts in history.
