Book excerpt: “If you are curious and open to the life around you, if you are troubled as to why, how and by whom political power is held and used, if you sense there must be good intellectual reasons for your unease, if your curiosity and openness drive you toward wishing to act with others, to ‘do something,’ you already have much in common with the writers of the three essays in this book.” — Adrienne Rich With a preface by Adrienne Rich, Manifesto presents the radical vision of four famous young rebels: Marx and Engels’ Communist Manifesto, Rosa Luxemburg’s Reform or Revolution and Che Guevara’s Socialism and Humanity.

Download or read book The Communist Manifesto and Das Kapital written by Karl Marx and published by Knickerbocker Classics. This book was released on 2019-02-12 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The unabridged versions of these definitive works are now available together as a highly designed paperback with flaps with a new introduction by Robert Weick. Part of the Knickerbocker Classics series, a modern design makes this timeless book a perfect travel companion. Considered to be one of the most influential political writings, The Communist Manifesto is as relevant today as when it was originally published. This pamphlet by the German philosophers Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, published in 1884 as revolutions were erupting across Europe, discusses class struggles and the problems of a capitalist society. After being exiled to London, Marx published the first part of Das Kapital, a theoretical text that argues that capitalism will create greater and greater division in wealth and welfare and ultimately be replaced by a system of common ownership of the means of production. After Marx's death, Engels completed and published the second and third parts from his colleague's notes. The Knickerbocker Classics bring together the essential works of classic authors from around the world in stunning editions to be collected and enjoyed.

Download or read book The Relevance of the Communist Manifesto written by Slavoj Zizek and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-02-25 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No other Marxist text has come close to achieving the fame and influence of The Communist Manifesto. Translated into over 100 languages, this clarion call to the workers of the world radically shaped the events of the twentieth century. But what relevance does it have for us today? In this slim book Slavoj Zizek argues that, while exploitation no longer occurs the way Marx described it, it has by no means disappeared; on the contrary, the profit once generated through the exploitation of workers has been transformed into rent appropriated through the privatization of the ‘general intellect’. Entrepreneurs like Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg have become extremely wealthy not because they are exploiting their workers but because they are appropriating the rent for allowing millions of people to participate in the new form of the ‘general intellect’ that they own and control. But, even if Marx’s analysis can no longer be applied to our contemporary world of global capitalism without significant revision, the fundamental problem with which he was concerned, the problem of the commons in all its dimensions – the commons of nature, the cultural commons, and the commons as the universal space of humanity from which no one should be excluded – remains as relevant as ever. This timely reflection on the enduring relevance of The Communist Manifesto will be of great value to everyone interested in the key questions of radical politics today.

Download or read book Marx at the Margins written by Kevin B. Anderson and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2016-02-12 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Marx at the Margins, Kevin Anderson uncovers a variety of extensive but neglected texts by Marx that cast what we thought we knew about his work in a startlingly different light. Analyzing a variety of Marx’s writings, including journalistic work written for the New York Tribune, Anderson presents us with a Marx quite at odds with conventional interpretations. Rather than providing us with an account of Marx as an exclusively class-based thinker, Anderson here offers a portrait of Marx for the twenty-first century: a global theorist whose social critique was sensitive to the varieties of human social and historical development, including not just class, but nationalism, race, and ethnicity, as well. Through highly informed readings of work ranging from Marx’s unpublished 1879–82 notebooks to his passionate writings about the antislavery cause in the United States, this volume delivers a groundbreaking and canon-changing vision of Karl Marx that is sure to provoke lively debate in Marxist scholarship and beyond. For this expanded edition, Anderson has written a new preface that discusses the additional 1879–82 notebook material, as well as the influence of the Russian-American philosopher Raya Dunayevskaya on his thinking.

Download or read book Manifiesto Comunista written by Karl Marx and published by Siglo XXI Editores. This book was released on 2019-11-20 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Escrito en 1848 por dos revolucionarios de 28 y 30 años, olvidado o revitalizado según el momento histórico, el Manifiesto Comunista se irradió por todo el globo y se tradujo a todas las lenguas, excediendo largamente la esfera del movimiento obrero y las izquierdas. Incluso después del fin del comunismo soviético y la declinación de los partidos marxistas, el Manifiesto se afirma como el clásico político más influyente, con mucho que decir al mundo en las primeras décadas del siglo XXI. Todavía hoy, a más de un siglo y medio de su aparición, nuestro lenguaje político y nuestra imaginación histórica siguen siendo tributarios de sus vigorosos conceptos y sus imágenes poderosas: el fantasma del comunismo que recorre el mundo, la historia de la sociedad humana como lucha de clases, un mundo crecientemente globalizado por una expansión irrefrenable del capital, una burguesía que –como un mago incapaz de controlar las potencias que desencadenan sus propios conjuros– no puede existir sin revolucionar incesantemente sus propios medios de producción, un capitalismo que en su expansión sólo aplaza una crisis final resultante de la contradicción insalvable entre el crecimiento de las fuerzas productivas y el estrecho marco de sus relaciones de producción y propiedad. La presente edición, que incluye los sucesivos prólogos escritos por los autores, cuenta con una deslumbrante introducción de Eric Hobsbawm, que lee el Manifiesto desde la perspectiva del presente, señalando su poder predictivo y la asombrosa vitalidad de sus hipótesis, capaces de sobrevivir al vendaval de la historia. En una traducción revisada y anotada por Horacio Tarcus, a fin de reponer el contexto imprescindible para nuevas generaciones de lectores, el texto vuelve a mostrar que, además de ser una pieza única de retórica revolucionaria, es la más concisa y la más sugestiva caracterización del capitalismo.

Download or read book Anarchists of the Caribbean written by Kirwin R. Shaffer and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-05-14 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anarchists who supported the Cuban War for Independence in the 1890s launched a transnational network linking radical leftists from their revolutionary hub in Havana, Cuba to South Florida, Puerto Rico, Panama, the Panama Canal Zone, and beyond. Over three decades, anarchists migrated around the Caribbean and back and forth to the US, printed fiction and poetry promoting their projects, transferred money and information across political borders for a variety of causes, and attacked (verbally and physically) the expansion of US imperialism in the 'American Mediterranean'. In response, US security officials forged their own transnational anti-anarchist campaigns with officials across the Caribbean. In this sweeping new history, Kirwin R. Shaffer brings together research in anarchist politics, transnational networks, radical journalism and migration studies to illustrate how men and women throughout the Caribbean basin and beyond sought to shape a counter-globalization initiative to challenge the emergence of modern capitalism and US foreign policy whilst rejecting nationalist projects and Marxist state socialism.

Download or read book The Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844 and the Communist Manifesto written by Karl Marx and published by Prometheus Books. This book was released on 2009-09-25 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Communism as a political movement attained global importance after the Bolsheviks toppled the Russian Czar in 1917. After that time the works of Karl Marx and Frederick Engels, especially the influential Communist Manifesto (1848), enjoyed an international audience. The world was to learn a new political vocabulary peppered with "socialism," "capitalism," "the working class," "the bourgeoisie," "labor theory of value," "alienation," "economic determinism," "dialectical materialism," and "historical materialism." Marx's economic analysis of history has been a powerful legacy, the effects of which continue to be felt world-wide. Serving as the foundation for Marx's indictment of capitalism is his extraordinary work titled Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts, written in 1844 but published nearly a century later. Here Marx offers his theory of human nature and an analysis of emerging capitalism's degenerative impact on man's sense of self and his creative potential. What is man's true nature? How did capitalism gain such a foothold on Western society? What is alienation and how does it threaten to undermine the proletariat? These and other vital questions are addressed as the youthful Marx sets forth his first detailed assessment of the human condition.

Download or read book Manifiesto comunista written by Karl Marx and published by Grupo Sin Fronteras SAS. This book was released on 2022-11-16 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Publicado por primera vez en forma anónima, en Londres, el 21 de febrero de 1848, este fue un texto escrito por encargo de la Liga de los Comunistas, una asociación creada poco antes, en junio de 1947, e integrada mayormente por exiliados alemanes, como el propio Karl Marx. Cuando redactó el Manifiesto, a dúo con Friedrich Engels, Marx ya había sido expulsado de Alemania y de Francia por sus ideas socialistas y su activismo. Durante su exilio en Londres escribirá casi toda su obra. Diferenciándose de los "socialistas utópicos", Marx y Engels se propusieron formular los principios de un "socialismo científico", partiendo de una crítica al orden capitalista que expuso las leyes de su funcionamiento; leyes que llevarían al sistema a su destrucción. El Manifiesto fue reconocido más tarde como uno de los documentos políticos más influyentes del mundo. En 2013, la UNESCO registró el primer tomo de El capital junto con el Manifiesto comunista en el Programa Memoria del Mundo
