"Stongly recommended." ? The Hindu "A successful attempt at communication to a new generation of the dazzling effect . . . of a masterpiece, literary and philosophical, in the history of human thought." ? The Book Review "Every time bourgeois historians and economists have sought to give it a decent burial as a text . . . which has had its day, the Manifesto has come back on a stunning note of contemporaneity." ? Biblio The Communist Manifesto is among the most widely read and disseminated texts in the world. It has been more influential in the making of the modern world than any other piece of political writing. Rarely has a call to arms been phrased in a language of such zest, beauty and purity. One hundred and fifty years after it was written, the Manifesto shows us an image of our own, present-day globalized capitalism with stunning clarity and accuracy. Along with the editor's Introduction, the present volume contains essays by three of India's foremost Marxist scholars, who explain the relevance of the Manifesto in terms of Marxist theory and praxis. The volume also contains the annotated text of the Manifesto, 'Preface to the English Edition of 1888' by Engels, and a note on the publishing history of the Manifesto in India, compiled here for the first time.
