Karl Marx (1818-1883) was the son of a lawyer in Prussia. He studied law and philosophy at several German universities and received a doctoral degree in 1841. Unable to find an academic job, Marx joined with radical German intellectuals, began writing for left-wing journals, and soon moved to Paris with other Germans.Friedrich Engels (1820-1893), the son of a well-to-do German textile manufacturer, was sent as a young man to Manchester in England where his father owned a factory, to learn the business and then manage it. Marx and Engels met in Paris in 1844. There they began a collaboration in thinking and writing that lasted for 40 years. In 1847 they joined the Communist League, a tiny secret group of revolutionaries active in the more liberal cities of Western Europe.It was for the Communist League that Marx and Engels wrote their Communist Manifesto, which was published in January 1848. This political booklet summarizes their theories about the nature of society and politics. One of its well-known sentences is: “The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles.” The booklet also briefly expresses the ideas for how the capitalist society would eventually be replaced by socialism. It was believed that, through a workers’ revolution, a classless society would be established where “people work according to their abilities and get according to their needs”.When the revolutions of 1848 failed, Marx and Engels were disappointed. Then, Engels returned to his factory at Manchester. Marx also settled in England, spending the rest of his life in London, where, after long labors in the library of the British Museum, he finally produced his huge work called Capital, of which the first volume was published in German in 1867. The final two volumes were edited by Engels and published after Marx’s death. Capital describes how capitalism works and the problems this creates, such as exploitation and alienation. This monumental work became the foundation of the worldwide movement of socialism and communism.
