Document Analysis: The Communist Manifesto

The 1848 communist manifesto is a prologue of two great thinkers, Karl Marx and Engels, where it was published in various languages, since it has been one of the most influential political treaties in history.

This manifesto is composed of various issues for the explanation of a party that has been since the beginning of history, giving us the necessary explanations to understand the thoughts of Marx and Engels in a political treaty. Starting with the Communist League, it is an international organization, where they became secret, they talked about the reaction of a detailed theoretical and practical program for advertising only. Thus this manifesto begins to be born, whose original was in London.

Manifesto himself warns that the application of the practice of principles will depend on the historical context in which we are, since the political situation changes. The general idea that inspires all this, is that the economic regime of production and social structuring that the deriva constitutes the basis on which political history. The whole history of society is a story of class struggles, of struggles between exploitative and exploited, dominant and dominated classes, until the point that the dominated and exploited class cannot more of the class that exploits and oppresses, called, called, called, called, called, called, calledbourgeoisie. The communist manifesto was proposed by mission to proclaim the disappearance of bourgeois property.

The labor sector demanded a radical transformation of society, which was the communist. It can be said that the revolution was everywhere in the working class, those who were exploited by the highest ranges, rising in arms giving their lives for this cause. As a result of the above, it was the best pretext for the communist idea to see light, causing different countries to express their parties.

Bourgeois and proletarians

Human history from the first settled to today, is a social class struggle story. Life is between the oppressed and the oppressors, committed to a constant struggle, which leads each stage to the revolutionary transformation of every social regime. In historical times we are divided, within each hierarchy one ruin, and is subdivided into degrees and positions.

The discovery of America opened new horizons and promoted the bourgeoisie. The needs followed, at that time the manufacturing was no longer enough.. The steam engine came to save and revolutionize the world industrial regime, promoting trade, navigation, and communications by land. But as always, each stage of progress gives more power to the bourgeoisie, since it was a new stage of political progress. Power becomes pure and simply the Board of Directors that follows the collective interests of the bourgeois class. The bourgeoisie is making the means of production more and more, the property of the inhabitants of the country, agglomera the population, centralizes the means of production and concentrates the property in the hands of some.

In the same proportion in which the bourgeoisie develops, that is, the capital, the class of the proletariat is also developed, that is, the working class, which only lives finding work, finding it to the extent that the capital is fed and increased. Society cannot live under a domain of that class. The existence and dominance of the bourgeois class aim to concentrate the wealth in the hands of a few, increasing its capital, but with the need and work of the proletariat.

Proletarians and communists 

In general it can be said that communists are the good and determined part, since they seek. They venture to have the same interests, maintaining the interest of the movement focused on their whole.

What characterizes communism is not the struggle in general, if not to the fight to the regime owned by the bourgeoisie, of bourgeois private property. For them to be capitalist is to occupy a position, in the highest social class, in the process of production and ideas. The only thing they aspire is to transform the collective nature of the property, to strip it of its class. The average price of salaried work is the minimum salary. Everything that the salaried bullfighter acquires with his work is what he needs to continue living and working.

In communist society, accumulated work will be a simple means to delay, foster and enrich the life of the worker. Communism does not deprive anyone from the power to appropriate social products, the only thing that does not admit is the power to usurp through this appropriation the work of others. Understanding this chapter is the fight of the defense of labor work, which compared to the bourgeois is defending the same work.

Socialist and communist literature

Among this manifesto, several tendencies, such as: reactionary socialism, bourgeois socialism and utopian critical communism stood out. These three socialisms talk about the representation of social classes, the first about the representation of workers, and interests of pre -capitalist classes, the bourgeois talks about the defense of the middle classes and finally the utopian critic talks about the perfect creation of asociety, where classes are losing importance.

Communist attitude to other opposition parties

The communists, although you fight to defend and enforce, represent a couple. In France they allied the Socialist Democratic Party, against the conservative and radical bourgeoisie. In Switzerland they support radicals, but it is a mixture, socialist democrats, the French and radical bourgeois way. In Poland, the communists support the party that sustains the Agrarian Revolution, as a condition for the national emancipation of the country. Germany, the Communist Party will fight next to the bourgeoisie, while it acted correctly, giving the battle to the absolute monarchy, to feudal property and the little bourgeoisie.

In conclusion, communists support everywhere, how many revolutionary movements are raised against the social and political regime. The communists work for union and the intelligence of the democratic parties of all countries. They declare that their objectives can only be achieved by overthrowing violence for any existing social order.
