Das Kapital , Karl Marx's seminal work, is the book that above all others formed the twentieth century. From Kapital sprung the economic and political systems that at one time dominated half the earth and for nearly a century kept the world on the brink of war. Even today, more than one billion Chinese citizens live under a regime that proclaims fealty to Marxist ideology. Yet this important tome has been passed over by many readers frustrated by...

His hugely significant works "The Communist Manifesto" and "Das Kapital" fundamentally changed the way the world viewed economy and politics.

First published in 1867 as the beginning of an ambitious but unfinished six-volume series, Marx would only see the first volume published in his lifetime with two more published posthumously by Friedrich Engels, this work extensively attempts to expose and explain the capitalist mode of production...

Communist society also involves the absence of private property, social classes, money, and the state. Communists...

Escrito en 1848 por dos revolucionarios de 28 y 30 años, olvidado o revitalizado según el momento histórico, el Manifiesto Comunista se irradió por todo el globo y se tradujo a todas las lenguas, excediendo largamente la esfera del movimiento obrero y las izquierdas. Incluso después del fin del comunismo soviético y la declinación de los partidos marxistas, el Manifiesto se afirma como el clásico político más influyente, con mucho que decir...

Combining elements of psychology, sociology, and anthropology, it is a profound examination of the human condition rooted in a philosophy of economics. In this concise treatise, Marx presents an indictment of capitalism and its threat to the working man, his...

Una vez superado el clima de antimarxismo dominante en los años ochenta y noventa, el Marx del siglo XXI quedó liberado de la pesada hipoteca de ser el "padre" de los comunismos reales del siglo XX. De los escombros del Muro de Berlín surgió un Marx capaz de ofrecer claves válidas para entender el mundo globalizado por fuera de las interpretaciones canónicas de un partido o una ideología. Más cerca en el tiempo, el estallido financiero de...

Lohn, Preis und Profit ist die Bezeichnung eines Vortragsmanuskripts von Karl Marx aus dem Jahre 1865.

Warenpreise würden sich nach dem Gesetz von Angebot und Nachfrage verhalten; Lohnzahlungen seien auf die Verhandlungen zwischen Arbeitern und Kapitalisten...

When Karl Marx declared religion the opium of the people, he voiced a central tenet of the philosophy that bears his name. In this collection of essays and letters by Marx and his colleague, Friedrich Engels, the founders of Marxism discuss their perspectives on the origins and essence of religion.

Como Marx expone en el prólogo a la Crítica de la Economía política, la finalidad que Marx y Engels perseguían al escribir La ideología alemana era "desentrañar conjuntamente el antagonismo entre nuestra concepción y la de la ideológica de la filosofía alemana, en realidad, ajustar cuentas con nuestra conciencia filosófica anterior. Y el propósito se llevó a cabo bajo la forma de una crítica de la filosofía posthegeliana". En carta...

Marx published "The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte" in 1852. The "Eighteenth Brumaire" refers to November 9, 1799 in the French Revolutionary Calendar-the day Napoleon Bonaparte made himself dictator. In this piece, Marx traces how the clash of different public interests manifest themselves in the complex net of political struggles, and in particular the contradictory relationships between the external form of a struggle and its real social...

Whenever a collection of Marx's works is published, a few questions inevitably arise. Is Marx still relevant today? Do we still have something to gain from reading the great man's thoughts about economic structures? To put this question another way - if Marx was wrong, in the end, about what communism would look like, then why do we still read his writings?
One way to answer this is by looking at the similarities between Marx's world and ours. The...

In the Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844 Marx explains how, under capitalism, people rely on labor to live. In the past people could rely on Nature itself for their natural needs; in modern society, if one wants to eat, one must work: it is only through money that one may survive. Thus, man becomes a slave to his wages. It is only through his work that he can find enough money to continue to live; but he doesn't simply live, he actually...
