All across the world--in countless places and idioms--it has been debated, shared, brandished, invoked, banned, burned, and even declared \"dead.\" But in an era of escalating political, economic, health, and environmental crises, Marx and Engels' fierce indictment of capitalism is more relevant than ever, and their Manifesto remains required reading from the classroom to the picket line.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eScholar Phil Gasper draws on his decades of teaching and organizing experience to produce a beautifully organized edition of the Manifesto that brings the text to life.
