# The Communist Manifesto

By Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels.

"The Communist Manifesto" by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels is a political pamphlet published in 1848. Commissioned by the Communist League, it presents the theory that all history is shaped by class struggle. The authors analyze how capitalism creates conflict between the working class and those who own the means of production. They predict capitalism will destroy itself through internal contradictions, leading to revolution and a classless society. The manifesto outlines transitional policies and ends with its famous call for working-class solidarity across all nations. (Summary by Project Gutenberg, written by machine.)
