The Communist Manifesto
by Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels
challenging
informative
reflective
slow-paced
Very interesting and informative. Highlights the key objectives of communism; the nationalisation of property/industry, the establishment of trade unions for workers, widespread availability of public education and the deconstruction of the concept of patriotism / nationhood. The manifesto defines the role of the proletariat and describes the oppression done on to them by the bourgeoisie...how this practice is decenendant from feudalism wherein the nobility has been replaced by the industrialist.
Lastly, it states that history is really just the history of class struggles and the endeavours of some to end these struggles...which fair enough, it probably is.
Thought it was interesting that Marx and Engels thought the communist revolution would start in Germany and that they didn't even mention Russia at any point.
