Analysis of the Communist Manifesto
The communist manifest was a book published by two famous authors that wanted to make a point and soon make changes to the world. Both, Karl Marx a German philosopher and
Friedrich Engel also a German philosopher, wrote the “Manifesto of the Communist Party” as the communist League (an international political party). The two authors, Marx and Engels had similar ideas and eventually start on working together on the Manifesto.The communist manifesto reflects the attempt the goals of communism.The goal of Communist manifesto, is to make the world in the direction to communism without having a social class being superior to the other.
Karl Marx and Friedrich Engel work intensively hard to publish the manifesto. By translating it in different language in Western Europe and the America. The communist manifesto is a publication in 1848 that reveal the truth about capitalism and the class struggles and send their political belief of communism. One of their achievements is to send their political message throughout all of Europe with the success of publishing in every language in the western part of the world. Apart of all of this capitalism allows the free trade market which both authors believe the cause of society having a class struggle. Their effort of proving their point of view,was in order to change the world by having “one nation, with one government, one code of

laws, one national class-interest, and one custom tariff” and the wealth to be shared between all people in order to get rid of the class struggles.
The Industrial revolution transformed the way European lived. Because of capitalism, was a new age if the Industrial Revolution. During the Industrial Revolution, their were two class conflicts, the bourgeois and the proletarians. The bourgeois is the middle class that rose up and established new class, while the proletarians were the modern working class. With new technology, such as factories, the main source of making mass production of goods. As demand increased for manufactured goods, the economy change and so did social class. Markets force grew stronger and was the caused of the two classes to be in conflict. The bourgeois which was the property owning class, gained wealth and power while the proletarians were the industrial working class under the bourgeois.
In the middle ages, bourgeois were self employed. After the middles ages, the The bourgeois were highly dependent on the working class. With the help of machinery, mass production was made to provide goods. The market has given an immense development that it gave the bourgeoisie
The Proletarian goes under struggle with the bourgeoisie. The bourgeoisie is responsible for taking away the man kind that use to be and replaced it with paid wage laborers. Because of that, family relation has reduce to a “mere money relation”. In Great Britain, where the industrial revolution first began, laborers, crowded into the factory like slaves of the bourgeois. As the repulsiveness of the laborers work increased, the wage decrease. As the bourgeois exploits the proletariat, the proletarians retaliated directed their attack to the bourgeois in order to restore “the vanished status of the workman of the Middle Ages.

Karl Marx believes that a capitalist government has cause the proletariat to revolutionize against the bourgeoisie. The proletariat live only as they can find jobs which they were dependent on bourgeoisie and who find work only so long as their labour increases capital.
Eventually, the small entrepreneurs and peasant gradually sink into the proletariat.
