The Communist Manifesto and The Principles of Communism

Nearly 180 years after its first publication, The Communist Manifesto
remains a remarkably modern text. In a period marked by deep
economic crisis, war, and revolutions, the Manifesto can help to acquaint
a new generation with the ideas of Marxism necessary to understand
and change the world.

This edition contains a new introduction as well as The Principles of
Communism by Friedrich Engels, a text written alongside the Manifesto
and a useful supplement to it. Included also are new footnotes to help
the reader better understand the period in which each text was written.
Whether this is your first time reading the Manifesto or not, the
complimentary material included in this edition will allow you to get
the most out of this important work.
