7h 23min, feb 21, 1848 y - Communist Manifesto
Description:
The Communist Manifesto was a product of the social, economic, and political confusion that characterized Europe before 1850. Both of its authors, Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, were touched by the elements of this social, economic, and political confusion. It was published in London by a group of German-born revolutionary socialists known as the Communist League. Originally published in German as Manifest der Kommunistischen Partei (“Manifesto of the Communist Party”), the work had little immediate impact. Its ideas, however, reverberated with increasing force into the 20th century, and by 1950 nearly half the world’s population lived under Marxist governments.
