Communist Manifesto, 1848
"The history of all hitherto existing society
is the history of class struggles. Freeman
and slave, patrician and plebeian, lord and
serf, guild-master and journeyman, in a
word, oppressor and oppressed…the
modern bourgeois society that has
sprouted from the ruins of feudal society,
has not done away with class antagonisms.
It has but established new classes, new
conditions of oppression."

(history is class struggle) and communism
(Communist Manifesto-1848 [class war],
Das Kapital-1867 [anti-capitalism])
Karl Marx and Frederick Engel’s Das
Kapital, 1867
"Capital is dead labor, which, vampire-like,
lives only by sucking living labor, and lives
the more, the more labor it sucks...
Capitalist production, therefore, develops
technology, and the combining together of
various processes into a social whole, only
by sapping the original sources of all wealth
— the soil and the labourer... Battle of
competition is fought by the cheapening of
commodities.."

11. Karl Marx
Socialist ideas had
been spreading
since the industrial
revolution started.
His Communist
Manifesto won’t really
catch on until
after his death in 1883.
Marxism: Viewing
life as a class struggle
Communism: Solution to class struggle: no priv
wealth
