Communist Manifesto | Classics of Marxis...

Revolutionary Communist Party
About this episode

Opening our new series on Marxist Classics, aimed to inspire our listeners to tackle these texts for themselves, Daniel, Tom, Lubna & Peter discuss the Communist Manifesto.

The founding document of our movement, it is without a slightest doubt a text that changed the world. Despite being published all the way back in 1848, we discuss its remarkable relevance today, and highlight some of its main lessons.

This podcast series is in no way a replacement for studying theory for yourself.
