About

Looking at how the meaning of the Manifesto may have changed between when it was published and the end of the Cold War, Communist Manifesto provides you with insight in to the evolution of and influences on Marxist theory. Through primary foundational documents and the full text itself the trajectory of Marx's thought from the 1830s onward is explored, citing political, social, and intellectual contexts of which the Manifesto is a historical product.
