20h 27min, oct 31, 1847 y - The Communist Manifesto
Description:
Written by Karl Marx, The Communist Manifesto makes an attempt to explain the goals of Communism, as well as the theory underlying this movement. It argues that class struggles are the motivating force behind all historical developments. Class relationships are defined by an era's means of production. However, eventually these relationships cease to be compatible with the developing forces of production. At this point, a revolution occurs and a new class emerges as the ruling one.
