Four Classic Texts on the Principles of Socialism – Karl Marx , Friedrich Engels , Vladimir Lenin

Karl Marx , Friedrich Engels , Vladimir Lenin

The book is made up of four texts: the Communist Manifesto, the battle-cry of socialism and the very heart of the argument; Value, Price and Profit, a simple and lucid statement of Karl Marx’s basic ideas; Socialism, Utopian and Scientific, Engels’ firm dissection of the historical background of socialist thinking; and The State and Revolution, Lenin’s analysis of what is to be destroyed by a revolution and what is to be put in its place.

All four authors are rich in historical interest, and the topicality of their arguments is still very far from being exhausted.
