Synopsis "The Political Writings "

All of Marx’s essential political writing in one volumeKarl Marx was not only the great theorist of capitalism. He was also a superb journalist, politician, and historian. This book brings together all of his essential political and historical writings in one volume for the first time. These works allow us to see the depth and range of thought in the mature Marx, covering a period from the tumultuous revolutions of 1848 that rocked Europe through to the end of his life. With a foreword by Tariq Ali, and including The Communist Manifesto, The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte, The Class Struggles in France, and The Critique of the Gotha Programme, this volume shows Marx at his most astute, analysing the forces of global capitalism as they played out in the world around him.

His ideas quickly gained acceptance in the socialist movement and his writings became essential reading for any ideological tendency. Philosopher, sociologist, historian, economist, and revolutionary activist, his extensive work has reached the status of universal reference.
