Manifesto of the Communist Party
and Its Genesis
Karl Marx & Frederick Engels. The Manifesto of the Communist
Party and Its Genesis. Published by the Marxists
Internet Archive, 2010.
Written by Karl Marx and Frederick Engels in 1848, the
“Manifesto
of the Communist Party” is the founding document of
Communism.
Republished in countless editions in almost every language of the
world, it has proved to be a timeless critique of modernity.
This Marxists Internet Archive edition includes all the prefaces
published during Marx & Engels’ life times as well as
the
first draft of the Manifesto: “The Principles of
Communism.” Also included is the “Demands of the
Communist
Party in Germany,” an agitational document published at the
same
time as the Manifesto, which addresses the immediate demands of the
workers movement in Germany in 1848, and makes an informative contrast
with the Manifesto which addressed an international and historical
movement.
These documents from 1847-8 are supplemented with the “Third
Address of the International Workingmen’s Association, The
Paris
Commune,” delivered by Marx in May 1871, in the immediate
aftermath of the crushing of the Commune. Here Marx made the only
amendments to the views expressed in the Manifesto made necessary by
the experience of the revolutionary working class itself.
This collection provides the reader with a first-hand account of the
genesis of the founding ideas of communism, and allows the reader to
see the relation between the development of the workers’
movement
itself and the theories which give voice to that movement.
The Manifesto of
the Communist Party and its Genesis
is available only through Erythrós Press and Media and all
proceeds go towards the operations of the Marxists Internet Archive.
