The Communist Manifesto

Marx, Karl

Karl Marx and Frederick Engles

(Published in 1848, the charter of the modern Socialist movement)

THE COMMUNISTS disdain to conceal their views and aims. They openly declare that their ends can be attained only by the forcible overthrow of all existing social conditions. Let the ruling classes tremble at a Communistic revolution. The proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains. They have a world to win.

Workingmen of all countries, unite!
