Karl Marx

Diese auch als Pariser Manuskripte bekannten Notizen sind bis in die 1920er-Jahre unentdeckt geblieben. Sie skizzieren bereits - wenn auch in philosophischem Gewand - Marx' Einsichten zur Kritik der Nationalokonomie, die er spater im Kapital mit gescharftem okonomischen Blick ausarbeitete. Die Worte des jungen Marx' vermogen gerade ihren heutigen Leser tief zu erschuttern (oder peinlich zu beruhren), fuhren sie doch uber einen Vergleich mit der aktuellen Wirtschaftsordnung vor Augen, was das Proletariat nicht erreicht hat, wie sehr es sich global in dieselbe Misere verstrickt findet. Zugleich mahnen sie, die herrschenden Verhaltnisse der Entfremdung fur den arbeitenden Teil der Menschheit aufzulosen. Fur einen umfassenderen Zugang zum Gesamtwerk, zu seiner logischen Entwicklung, bilden diese fruhen Schriften einen aufschlussreichen Ansatzpunkt. Zur bequemeren Arbeit mit dem Text sind Hinweise auf die Seitenzahlen der verbreiteten Dietz-Ausgabe eingefugt.

2011 Reprint of 1939 Edition. Parts I & III of "The German Ideology." Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Originally published by the Marx-Engels Institute in Moscow in 1939. "The German Ideology" was written by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels circa 1846, but published later. The original edition was divided into three parts. Part I, the most significant, is perhaps the classic statement of the Marxist theory of history and his much cited "materialist conception of history." Since its first publication, Marxist scholars have found Part I "The German Ideology" particularly valuable since it is perhaps the most comprehensive statement of Marx's theory of history stated at such length and detail. Part II consisted of many satirically written polemics against Bruno Bauer, other Young Hegelians, and Max Stirner. These polemical and highly partisan sections of the "German Ideology" have not been reproduced in this edition. We reprint Parts I & Parts III only. Part III treats Marx & Engels' conception of true socialism and is reprinted in its entirety. Part II has not been reprinted in this edition in order to produce a small and inexpensive book which contains the gist of the "German Ideology." Appendix contains the "Theses on Feuerbach." Index of authors, with scholarly citations and footnotes.

Featuring an extensive, provocative introduction by historian Martin Malia, this authorized English translation of The Communist Manifesto, edited and annotated by Engels, with prefaces to editions published between 1872 and 1888, provides a new opportunity to examine the document that shook the world. In 1848, two young men published what would become one of the defining documents of modern history, The Communist Manifesto. It rapidly realigned political faultlines all over the world and its aftershock resonates to this day. In the many years since its publication, no other social program has inspired such divisive and violent debate. Ever since the collapse of the Soviet Union, the world's first regime to adopt the Manifesto's tenets, historians have debated its intent and its impact. In the current era of market democracy in Russia and Eastern Europe, nationalism on every continent, and an ever tightening global economy, does the specter of Communism still haunt the world? Were the seeds of Communism's ultimate destruction already planted in 1848? Is there anything to be learned from Marx's envisioned utopia? With an Introduction by Martin Maliaand an Afterword by Stephen Kotkin
