``Workers of the world, Unite `` With these words, concludes one of the world's most influential political texts-- The Communist Manifesto . Surviving through countless decades of revolution and counter-revolution, Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels' work remains as relevant today as it was in 1848, providing a rallying cry for people struggling under conditions of economic oppression worldwide. Fiery and provocative, The Communist Manifesto has been a call-to-arms for everyone engaged in the movement to expose and overthrow the broken and exploitative capitalist system. This beautiful collectible edition includes a new introduction by Jodi Dean and a new foreword by David Harvey.
