![]() ![]() Published to coincide with the 200th anniversary of Marx’s birth, The Communist Manifesto is both a timely reminder of the politics of hope and a thought-provoking guide to the most influential work of political theory ever published. The Guardian’s editorial cartoonist Martin Rowson employs his trademark draughtsmanship and wit in this lively graphic novel adaptation. The Communist Manifesto and other Writings, by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, is part of the Barnes & Noble Classics series, which offers quality. It is no surprise, perhaps, that The Communist Manifesto (as it was later renamed) is the second bestselling book of all time, surpassed only by The Bible. Much of what Marx and Engels proposed continues to be at the heart of political debate in the 21st century. It remains the most incisive introduction to the ideas of Communism and the most lucid explanation of its aims. Published in 1848, at a time of political upheaval in Europe, Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels’ Manifesto for the Communist Party was at once a powerful critique of capitalism and a radical call to arms. ![]()
