The 19th century German philosopher and social commentator who is regarded as the founder of modern communism. He collaborated with Friedrich Engels in the writing of The Communist Manifesto (1848) which envisaged the classless society, and then enlarged his theories in his best known work Das Kapital. In these volumes he explained ‘the labour theory of value,’ that the worker is more important than the capitalist who exploits his labour.
Three-volume work presenting the theories of Karl Marx on economic production, published 1867–95. It focuses on the exploitation of the worker and appeals for a classless society where the production process and its rewards are shared equally.
