«El manifiesto comunista / El capital» by Karl Marx is the book of political and economic theory published by Prisa Innova in 2009.
The volume brings together two fundamental texts of Marx's thought: the manifesto, written as a programme of political struggle, and El capital, a critical analysis of the functioning of capitalism. They address class struggle, the theory of value and the dynamics of the capitalist system, keys to understanding the Marxist critique of political economy.
May be of interest to students and readers of philosophy, history and economics, as well as anyone who wants to approach Marx's thought.
Karl Marx was a German philosopher, social and political theorist, and revolutionary socialist. He developed the theory of historical materialism, analysing societal structure and change, particularly class struggle under capitalism, and predicting the system's ultimate replacement by communism. Marx co-authored The Communist Manifesto (1848) with Friedrich Engels, and undertook a critique of classical political economy in his magnum opus, Das Kapital (1867–1894). His ideas and their later development, collectively known as Marxism, have had enormous influence on intellectual, political, and social history, and have inspired revolutionary movements in many countries.
