A new translation of Marx''s 1847 "Das Elend der Philosophie" or "The Misery of Philosophy". This has historically been translated as "The Poverty of Philosophy", but in this translation it is rendered "The Misery of Philosophy" since it is Marx''s reply to Pierre-Joseph Proudhon''s 1847 "The System of Economic Contradictions, or The Philosophy of Misery" This is volume VI in The Complete Works of Karl Marx by Livraria Press. This edition includes a new introduction by the translator and reference materials including a Glossary of Philosophic and Economic Marxist Terminology, an Index of Personalities Associated with Marx and a Timeline of Marxu0092s Life and Works. Originally published in French under the title "Misère de la philosophie. Réponse a la philosophie de la misère de M. Proudhon" in 1847 in Paris, the German version was published in 1884 in Stuttgart.

A new translation of Marx''s 1844 "Zur Kritik der Hegelschen Rechtsphilosophie" from the original manuscript. This edition includes a new introduction by the translator and reference materials including a Glossary of Philosophic and Economic Marxist Terminology, an Index of Personalities Associated with Marx and a Timeline of Marxu0092s Life and Works. This is Volume III in The Complete Works of Karl Marx by NL Press. In "Towards the Critique of Hegel''s Philosophy of Right" Marx''s argument is that Hegel''s political philosophy is an abstraction that fails to take into account the concrete reality of human existence and the class struggles that shape it. He contends that in order to understand the state, civil society, and the concept of alienation, one must take into account the economic relations that underlie it and the material conditions of society. The central argument of Marx''s critique is that the state is not a neutral arbiter of justice, but is rather an instrument of class warefare and exploitation. This is a mimicry of Feuerbachu0092s argument nearly word-for-word. Marx''s critique serves to demonstrate the importance of a historical and materialist perspective in understanding the nature of human freedom and morality. It serves as a precursor to his later theories of historical materialism and dialectical materialism, which continue to be influential in the modern world. Marx''s critique in this work centers around the idea that Hegel''s philosophy is an abstraction that fails to take into account the concrete reality of human existence and the class struggles that shape it.

A new translation of Marx''s influential 1845 "Die heilige Familie oder Kritik der kritischen Kritik" from the original manuscript. This edition includes a new introduction by the translator and reference materials including a Glossary of Philosophic and Economic Marxist Terminology, an Index of Personalities Associated with Marx and a Timeline of Marxu0092s Life and Works. This is Volume IV in The Complete Works of Karl Marx by NL Press. The Holy Family is Marx''s first foray into building his dialectical materialism, while still attacking the modern Hegelians.The main title itself is mocking Bruno Bauer''s "Pure Criticism", which Marx parodies with the nonsense "Critical Criticism". This is the first publication Engels and Marx published together, only one year after meeting in person in 1844. Here he is attacking other Hegelians and Critical Philosophy writ large, arguing against Hegel''s idealistic dialectic for his own dialectal Epicurean Materialism which he began to outline in his Ph.D. Thesis "Differenz der demokritischen und epikureischen Naturphilosophie" in 1841. Marx believed that Critical Philosophy in general (kritische Philosophie), which sees the most fundamental task of Philosophy as primarily judging the possibility of knowledge before asserting any claim of knowledge itself, as misguided in its Platonic Ontology. The entire work is a polemic against "The Holy Family" of young Hegelians, mocking and insulting them on every page. He uses sarcastic parody, nearly Horatian satire, specifically towards Christianity- "Criticism so loved the masses that it sent its only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life". Ultimately, he declared these dilettante philosophers "false prophets" and himself the true prophet of Atheistic, Skeptical and Materialistic Humanism. Here he also argues that the only way to deal with "the Jewish problem" is by eradicating Christianity and all metaphysical beliefs because the "bourgeois morality" gets in the way of implementing a true, final solution to the muddying of pure European nationality by the existence of the Jews. Here we see the foundations of the National-Socialist movement which declared "there is no God but the German people" and started eradicating millions in the name of Humanism and Progress.

In "The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Napoleon," Karl Marx examines the political upheaval in France following the 1848 Revolution, culminating in Louis Napoleon Bonaparte''s rise to power. Written in a vibrant and incisive style, the text combines historical analysis with Marx''s materialist conception of history, highlighting class struggles, political tactics, and the interplay between individual agency and broader socio-economic conditions. Marx''s narrative is steeped in the context of the burgeoning socialist movements of the mid-19th century, offering profound insights into the dynamics of power and resistance in a rapidly industrializing society. Karl Marx, a foundational figure in political philosophy and economics, draws from his deep understanding of history and class relations to craft this critical analysis. His experiences as a revolutionary thinker and activist in Europe, combined with his scholarly background, inform the text''s exploration of how a seemingly democratic process led to a dictatorial regime. Moreover, Marx''s examination of historical inversion through the lens of the "Eighteenth Brumaire" underscores his belief in the cyclical nature of history, providing a compelling framework for understanding contemporary political phenomena. This work is essential for readers seeking to comprehend the intricate mechanisms of power dynamics and class struggle. It transcends its historical context, offering timeless lessons relevant to modern politics and governance. Marx''s analysis sparks critical thought, making it a crucial resource for scholars, students, and anyone interested in the intersections of history, politics, and social theory.

In "Critique of the Gotha Programme," Karl Marx delivers a profound analysis of the political program proposed by the German Workers'' Party in 1875. The text is an incisive examination of the limitations of the bourgeois approach to socialism, articulated through a combination of rigorous dialectical reasoning and passionate critique. Marx adeptly addresses fundamental questions about labor, distribution, and the nature of class struggle within a capitalistic framework. The style is both accessible and deeply philosophical, reflecting his intent to forge a theoretical foundation that aligns with the revolutionary goals of the proletariat while critiquing opportunism within the socialist movement. Karl Marx, one of the most influential figures in political philosophy and economic theory, wrote this text in the context of his lifelong commitment to the working-class struggle against exploitation. His experiences in the tumultuous socio-economic climate of 19th-century Europe, marked by burgeoning industrialization and profound class disparities, shaped his critique of the Gotha Programme as a call for a more rigorous and principled socialist practice. I recommend "Critique of the Gotha Programme" not only as a vital historic document but also as an essential reading for contemporary thinkers and activists. By engaging with Marx''s arguments, readers will gain critical insights into the ever-relevant discourse on socialism, communism, and the dynamics of class politics.

B ▶ 마르크스하면 떠오르는 수많은 어록이 이 책을 통해 탄생하였으며, 특히 머리글과 마지막 문장이 유명합니다. ▶ Die Geschichte aller bisherigen Gesellschaft ist die Geschichte von Klassenkämpfen. The history of all hitherto existing societies is the history of class struggles. ▷ 모든 사회의 역사는 계급 투쟁의 역사이다. ▶ Under no pretext should arms and ammunition be surrendered; any attempt to disarm the workers must be frustrated, by force if necessary. ▷ 어떠한 이유로도 무기와 탄약을 포기해서는 안 됩니다. 필요한 경우 무력으로 노동자를 무장해제하려는 어떠한 시도도 좌절되어야 합니다. ▶ 영혼의 단짝 칼 마르크스(Karl Marx)와 프리드리히 엥겔스(Friedrich Engels) : 엥겔스는 섬유공장을 운영하는 부유한 아버지(an owner of large textile factories)를 두어 재정적으로 풍족했기에, 마르크스가 불규칙적인 인세로 생활하는 동안 물심양면으로 지원하였습니다. 엥겔스는 서신으로 왕래하던 칼 마르크스를 1844년 프랑스 파리에서 처음으로 만났으며, 죽음이 서로를 갈라놓을 때까지 공산주의자이자 지적 동반자, 그리고 재정적 후원자로써 행보를 함께 하였습니다. 두 사람은 신성가족(Die heilige Familie, 1845)을 시작으로 미국 내전에 대하여(The Civil War in the United States, 1861)까지 네 작품을 함께 집필하였으며, 가장 유명한 것은 역시 공산당 선언(The Communist Manifesto, 1848)입니다. 마르크스가 그의 대표작 자본론(資本論, Capital, 1867)을 완성하지 못한 채 1883년 사망하자, 이에 엥겔스가 유고를 모아 편집하는 과정을 거쳐 1885년 제2권, 1894년 제3권을 출간함으로써 완결한 것은 매우 유명한 일화로 아마도 ‘인류 역사상 가장 유명한 공저’가 아닐까 싶습니다. ▶ PREFACE. The "Manifesto" was published as the platform of the "Communist League," a workingmen''s association, first exclusively German, later on international, and, under the political conditions of the Continent before 1848, unavoidably a secret society. At a Congress of the League, held in London in November, 1847, Marx and Engels were commissioned to prepare for publication a complete theoretical and practical party programme. ▷ 머리말. "공산주의 선언"은 "공산주의 연맹(Communist League)"의 강령으로 출판되었습니다. 노동자 협회는 처음에는 독점적으로 독일인이었고 나중에는 국제적으로 1848년 이전 유럽 대륙의 정치적 상황에서는 불가피하게 비밀 결사였습니다. 1847년 11월 런던에서 열린 연맹 대회에서 마르크스와 엥겔스는 완전한 이론 및 실제 당 강령의 출판을 준비하라는 위임을 받았습니다. ▶ The defeat of the Parisian insurrection of June, 1848—the first great battle between Proletariat and Bourgeoisie—drove again into the background, for a time, the social and political aspirations of the European working class. Thenceforth, the struggle for supremacy was again, as it had been before the revolution of February, solely between the different sections of the propertied class; the working class was reduced to a fight for political elbow-room, and to the position of extreme wing of the Middle-class Radicals. ▷ 프롤레타리아트와 부르주아지 사이의 첫 번째 대전투인 1848년 6월 파리 봉기의 패배는 한동안 유럽 노동계급의 사회적, 정치적 열망을 다시금 배경으로 내몰았습니다. 그 이후로 패권을 위한 투쟁은 다시 2월 혁명 이전과 마찬가지로 유산계급의 서로 다른 분파들 사이에서만 벌어졌습니다. 노동계급은 정치적 자유를 위한 투쟁으로 전락했고 중산층 급진파의 극단적인 위치로 전락했습니다. ▶ When the European working class had recovered sufficient strength for another attack on the ruling classes, the International Workingmen''s Association sprang up. But this association, formed with the express aim of welding into one body the whole militant proletariat of Europe and America, could not at once proclaim the principles laid down in the "Manifesto." ▷ 유럽 노동계급이 지배계급에 대한 또 다른 공격을 위해 충분한 힘을 회복했을 때, 국제노동자협회(International Workmen''s Association)가 생겨났습니다. 그러나 유럽과 아메리카의 모든 전투적 프롤레타리아트를 하나의 몸으로 결집시키려는 명백한 목적으로 형성된 이 협회는 "공산주의 선언"에 규정된 원칙을 즉시 선포할 수 없었습니다. ▶ And Marx was right. The International, on its breaking up in 1874, left the workers quite different men from what it had found them in 1864. Proudhonism in France, Lassalleanism in Germany, were dying out, and even the conservative English Trades'' Unions, though most of them had long since severed their connection with the International, were gradually advancing towards that point at which, last year at Swansea, their President could say in their name, "Continental Socialism has lost its terrors for us." In fact, the principles of the "Manifesto" had made considerable headway among the workingmen of all countries. ▷ 그리고 마르크스가 옳았습니다. 인터내셔널은 1874년에 해체되면서 노동자들을 1864년에 발견했던 것과는 완전히 다른 인간으로 만들었습니다. 인터내셔널과의 연결이 끊어진 지 오래되었고, 작년 스완지에서 그들의 대통령이 그들의 이름으로 "대륙 사회주의는 우리에게 공포를 잃었습니다."라고 말할 수 있는 지점을 향해 점진적으로 전진하고 있었습니다. 사실 "공산주의 선언"의 원칙은 모든 나라의 노동자들 사이에서 상당한 진전을 이루었습니다. -목차(Index)- ▶ 프롤로그(Prologue). 테마여행신문 TTN Korea 영어고전(English Classics) 999선을 읽어야 하는 7가지 이유 ▶ 13가지 키워드로 읽는 칼 마르크스(Karl Marx, 1818~1883)와 프리드리히 엥겔스(Friedrich Engels, 1820~1895) 01. 마르크스주의(Marxism)의 원류, 카를 하인리히 마르크스(Karl Heinrich Marx, 1818~1883) 02.

In "The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte," Karl Marx offers a profound analysis of the political upheaval in France during the 1850s, particularly the rise of Louis Bonaparte after the 1848 revolution. Employing a blend of historical materialism and incisive political critique, Marx examines the interplay between class struggle and political power, articulating how varying social strata interact with nascent authoritarianism. The work is not merely a historical account; it is a rich commentary on the cyclical nature of history, foregrounding the concept that ''all great world-historic facts and personages appear, so to speak, twice.'' Its literary style is marked by sharp irony and rigorous analysis, situating it within the broader context of Marxist theory and its critiques of modern politics. Karl Marx, a revolutionary thinker and co-author of the "Communist Manifesto," penned this influential work drawing from his deep engagement with the socio-political realities of his time. His interest in class dynamics and revolutionary movements informs the narrative structure of the book, aligning with his overarching philosophy on the role of the proletariat in historical transformation. The tumultuous socio-political landscape of mid-19th century France provided a fertile ground for Marx''s exploration of the relationship between individual agency and historical determinism. For scholars, students, and anyone intrigued by the interrelations of politics and society, "The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte" is essential reading. It not only illuminates the historically contingent nature of political power but also evokes timeless questions about authority and resistance. This book remains a crucial text for understanding the complexities of revolution and the dynamics of class struggle, making it indispensable for contemporary discussions on democracy and power.

The Communist Manifesto, originally titled Manifesto of the Communist Party (German: Manifest der Kommunistischen Partei) is a short 1848 book written by the German Marxist political theorists Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. It has since been recognized as one of the world''s most influential political manuscripts. Commissioned by the Communist League, it laid out the League''s purposes and program. It presents an analytical approach to the class struggle (historical and present) and the problems of capitalism, rather than a prediction of communism''s potential future forms. The book contains Marx and Engels'' Marxist theories about the nature of society and politics, that in their own words, "The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles." It also briefly features their ideas for how the capitalist society of the time would eventually be replaced by socialism, and then eventually communism.

"The reading of all good books is like conversation with the finest (people) of the past centuries." - Descartes "Let the ruling classes tremble at a Communistic revolution.

English edition. Das Kapital (Capital) is a truly revolutionary book; it was forged during the political and industrial revolutions of the nineteenth century and became the keystone of many Communist revolutions of the twentieth century. In this comprehensive and carefully footnoted analysis of capitalist economics and expression of his theory of class conflict, Karl Marx (1818-1883) relentlessly argues that the accumulation of capital can only be achieved by bourgeoisie exploitation of the working classes.

The Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels is recognised as one of the world''s most influential political manuscripts. It presents an analytical approach to the class struggle and the problems of capitalism and the capitalist mode of production, rather than a prediction of communism''s potential future forms.

Capital: Volume One by Karl Marx is a classic of political economics and was described by Friedrich Engels, the author''s friend and collaborator, as "the bible of the working class." Thirty years in the making, this 1867 publication was the first in the three-part Das Kapital series and the only volume published during Marx''s lifetime. The polemic asserts that society is advancing from primitive economic systems toward the utopian state of communism. It remains a work of tremendous importance and influence and offers an astute critique of capitalism, exploring commodities, value, money, and other factors related to the system''s historic origins and contemporary functions. The examination of these elements forms the basis of Marxist doctrine: the system is irredeemable, a revolution is imperative, and a socialist system is the only viable alternative, providing a structure in which production serves the needs of all rather than the enrichment of the elite. AUTHOR: Philosopher and radical thinker Karl Marx (1818-74) was expelled from Germany and France after publishing controversial material, including The Communist Manifesto, which he co-wrote with Friedrich Engels. In 1848, he was exiled to London, where he wrote Das Kapital and resided for the remainder of his life.

The Communist Manifesto. Complete Version. By Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels. A spectre is haunting Europe, the spectre of Communism. All the Powers of old Europe have entered into a holy alliance to exorcise this spectre: Pope and Czar, Metternich and Guizot, French Radicals and German police-spies. Where is the party in opposition that has not been decried as Communistic by its opponents in power? Where is the Opposition that has not hurled back the branding reproach of Communism, against the more advanced opposition parties, as well as against its reactionary adversaries? The Communist Manifesto

This title is the classic communist party manifesto which started this one and a half decade political movement. The seven rarely published prefaces, mostly written by Frederick Engels after the death of Karl Marx, are included making this publication the complete communist manifesto. Although this title is known as one of the most famous left-wing propagandist publications, it serves as a lesson for those of all political philosophies. The Communist Manifesto should be required reading when studying political science, radicalism and radical political thought.

"The Communist Manifesto" by Karl Marx sits atop a larger body of work which forms Marx''s philosophy. Beyond the manifesto, Marx has been extremely influential in the areas of philosophy, psychology, ethics, aesthetics as well as the more obvious areas such as political economy. "The Communist Manifesto" is a consequence, then, of a much more complex philosophical analysis of his times. Readers continue to be amazed at how clearly Marx wrote and what an effective piece of propaganda "The Communist Manifesto" was and still is. Reading through Marx''s ideas, it is fascinating to know that some of the major platforms he promoted included the abolition of child labor, the creation of a progressive income tax, and free education. The modern notion of Communism stems more from Stalin and Lenin than Marx, who wrote at a time when the only democratic country in Europe was France. England, Germany and the Austro-Hungarian Empire all had limited franchises and Russia was an autocracy. One of the major reforms Karl Marx battled for was the introduction of democracy. It was his belief that the implementation of his program would flow from that. Communism as a modern political phenomena dates from 1917 when splinter Social Democrats followed Russia''s lead and developed small conspiratorial parties who were committed to the seizure of power by force. Stalinism is an offshoot of this system and is a form of state terror aimed at ensuring the survival of unpopular anti democratic regimes. Reading through "The Communist Manifesto," one can see a system which was not only an effective for mobilizing political movements, but came to influence intellectual debate for the next century.

In 1848 a wave of revolutions broke over Europe. Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, in the Communist Manifesto, urged the workers of all countries to unite. But the movement collapsed, and Marx became an exile in London, where he spent the next twenty years developing his great critique of the capitalist system. His monumental Capital was constructed as a scientific study of the political economy, but its driving force was Marx''s sense of the burning injustices imposed on the working classes by the Industrial Revolution, and their alienation from the society that their labour made possible. Today, with the rich western countries relying increasingly on low-wage production in the Third World and the instability of the capitalist banking system, many features of Marx''s analysis remain disturbingly relevant.

One of Karl Marx''s most profound and most brilliant monographs, this title may be considered the best work extant on the philosophy of history. For all serious students, the "Brumaire" is the book for those who wish to deepen their knowledge on Marxian political conceptions.

Written during the winter of 1857-8, the Grundrisse was considered by Marx to be the first scientific elaboration of communist theory. A collection of seven notebooks on capital and money, it both develops the arguments outlined in the Communist Manifesto (1848) and explores the themes and theses that were to dominate his great later work Capital. Here, for the first time, Marx set out his own version of Hegel''s dialectics and developed his mature views on labour, surplus value and profit, offering many fresh insights into alienation, automation and the dangers of capitalist society. Yet while the theories in Grundrisse make it a vital precursor to Capital, it also provides invaluable descriptions of Marx''s wider-ranging philosophy, making it a unique insight into his beliefs and hopes for the foundation of a communist state.

Includes the complete Communist Manifesto and substantial extracts from On the Jewish Question, the German Ideology, Grundrisse, and Capital, a broad representation of his letters, and lesser-known works, especially his long-unavailable, early works.
