Capital & The Communist Manifesto - Enriched edition Including Two Important Precursors to Capital (Wage-Labour and Capital & Wages Price and Profit)

Karl Marx

Traducteur Frederick Engels, Samuel Moore, Edward Aveling, Eleanor Marx

Maison d'édition: Good Press

Synopsis

Karl Marx's seminal works, "Capital" and "The Communist Manifesto," are cornerstones of social and economic theory that challenge the foundations of capitalist society. "Capital" offers a rigorous analysis of political economy, examining the relationships between labor, commodity, and capital with a deft blend of philosophical inquiry and empirical observation. In contrast, "The Communist Manifesto," co-authored with Friedrich Engels, presents a passionate call to arms for the proletariat, advocating for class struggle as the catalyst for social change. Together, these texts not only articulate the mechanics of capitalism but also envision an alternative society rooted in communal ownership and equality. Born in 1818 in Trier, Prussia, Karl Marx's life experiences'—including his engagement with the vibrant intellectual climate of Europe, exposure to the injustices of industrialization, and his journalistic endeavors'—shaped his revolutionary ideas. His historical materialist approach reflects a critique of capitalism that was both deeply personal and widely resonant in an era marked by rapid change, social upheaval, and the emergence of new class dynamics. These works are essential reading for anyone seeking to understand modern socio-economic structures and continue to inspire debate in contemporary discourse. Readers from diverse backgrounds will find profound insights into the nature of power, inequality, and the possibility of transformation, making these texts not only historical artifacts but also relevant guides for future social movements.

Lead Together - Stop...

Tania Luna

Leaders today want to stop feeling overwhelmed and alone. They want to build engaged, diverse, resilient, and joyful teams that achieve greater things together. They want a better way to lead. 
 
 
  
Lead Together is a fictional story, grounded in psychology and laden with practical tools, that offers leaders a power-with rather than power-over paradigm. It explores how leaders can develop power jointly rather than use it as a top-down means of control in the form of an engaging, squirrelly narrative. 
 
 
  
Psychology researcher and leadership educator Tania Luna offers the tale of Sam Squirrel, branch manager of Nuts for You, Inc., whose company faces an impending forest recession. Sam employs the leadership tactics his boss, Jack Walnuts, taught him ("know the way and make them go your way") but achieves only distrust, disengagement, poor performance, and high turnover. During Sam's last-ditch effort to meet his quotas, he finds a hidden, thriving community that shows him a radical new way to lead. But will it be enough to save Nuts for You and help Sam realize his dream of becoming Chief Nut Officer?
