Rreth këtij libri elektronik

In "Socialism: Utopian and Scientific," Frederick Engels presents a seminal analysis that distinguishes between the idealistic visions of socialism and its scientific underpinnings grounded in materialist philosophy. Written in 1880, the book employs a clear, didactic style aimed at elucidating the socioeconomic dynamics of capitalist society and the necessary conditions for a scientific socialism. Engels critiques earlier utopian models, emphasizing the importance of historical materialism and class struggle in shaping societal change, thereby situating the work within the broader context of Marxist theory and the intellectual ferment of the late 19th century. Frederick Engels, a close collaborator of Karl Marx, was instrumental in the development of socialist theory. Born into a wealthy industrial family, Engels witnessed firsthand the harsh realities of industrial labor, which deeply influenced his revolutionary views. His experiences as an observer of the working class's plight, paired with his intellectual partnership with Marx, inspired him to articulate a vision of socialism rooted not in dreams but in the reality of economic laws and social structures. Engels' work remains a cornerstone for those seeking a profound understanding of socialist thought. Its rigorous examination of class dynamics and material conditions offers invaluable insights for anyone interested in the foundations of modern socialism and the potentials of systemic change. This book is a must-read for scholars, students, and activists alike.

Rreth autorit

Frederick Engels (1820-1895), was a renowned German philosopher, social scientist, and journalist, who, alongside his close collaborator Karl Marx, played a pivotal role in the development of communist theory and laid the foundation for modern socialism. Engels was born in Barmen, Prussia (now Wuppertal, Germany) into a wealthy textile family. Despite his bourgeois background, Engels was deeply moved by the plight of the working class, which he observed firsthand in his father's factories, and became a fierce critic of capitalist society. He met Marx in Paris in 1844, and this marked the beginning of a lifelong friendship and intellectual partnership. Together, they published the seminal work, 'The Communist Manifesto' in 1848, a political pamphlet that has since become one of the world's most influential political manuscripts. Engels's work, 'Socialism: Utopian and Scientific' (1880), stands as a significant text aimed at distinguishing the Marxist concept of scientific socialism from the utopian socialism of earlier thinkers. This book illustrates Engels's expertise in distilling complex ideas into accessible concepts, demonstrating his profound influence on the working-class movement and his contributions to dialectical materialism and the theory of historical materialism. Engels's literary style, characterized by clear exposition and incisive critique, has resonated through ages, cementing his place as a crucial figure in the annals of political thought.
