THE COMMUNIST MANIFESTO & CAPITAL - Enriched edition Including Two Important Precursors to Capital (Wage-Labour and Capital & Wages Price and Profit)

Karl Marx

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

Beschreibung

Karl Marx's seminal works, 'The Communist Manifesto' and 'Capital,' delve deep into the principles of communism and the critique of capitalism. 'The Communist Manifesto' outlines the class struggles prevalent in society and the need for a proletarian revolution, presenting a stark vision of a society free from class distinctions and private ownership of the means of production. 'Capital' analyzes the capitalist system, exploring labor exploitation, surplus value, and economic crises. Marx's writing style is sharp, analytical, and persuasive, making his arguments compelling and thought-provoking. These works are essential in understanding Marxist theory and its influence on social and political thought. Published in the mid-19th century, they continue to impact contemporary discussions on equality, labor rights, and the role of the state in economy. Karl Marx, a German philosopher and economist, was driven by his observations of the working class's hardships and the inequalities perpetuated by capitalism. His critiques of the economic system and advocacy for communism were informed by his desire for social justice and equality. Marx's intellectual contributions have shaped revolutionary movements and inspired generations of thinkers, activists, and policymakers. I highly recommend 'The Communist Manifesto' and 'Capital' to readers interested in political philosophy, economics, and history. Marx's groundbreaking analysis of capitalism, labor relations, and class struggle remains relevant and influential, offering valuable insights into the dynamics of society and economy.

The Tatas - How a Family Built a...

Vikrant Pande, Girish Kuber,...

| WINNER OF THE GAJA CAPITAL BUSINESS BOOK PRIZE 2019 |

The nineteenth century was an exciting time of initiative and enterprise around the world. If John D. Rockefeller was creating unimagined wealth in the United States that he would put to the service of the nation, a Parsi family with humble roots was doing the same in India.In 1822, a boy was born in a priestly household in Gujarat's Navsari village. Young Nusserwanji knew early on that his destiny lay beyond his village and decided to head for Bombay to start a business - the first in his family to do so. He had neither higher education nor knowledge of business matters, just a burning passion to carve a path of his own.What Nusserwanji started as a cotton trading venture, his son Jamsetji, born in the same year as Rockefeller, grew into a multifaceted business, turning around sick textile mills, setting up an iron and steel company, envisioning a cutting-edge institute of higher learning, building a world-class hotel, and earning himself the title of the 'Bhishma Pitamah of Indian Industry'. Stewarded ably over the decades by Jamsetji's sons Dorabji and Ratanji, the charismatic and larger-than-life JRD, and thereafter the more business-like Ratan, the Tata group today is a 110-billion-dollar empire.The Tatas is their story. But it is more than just a history of the industrial house; it is an inspiring account of India in the making. It chronicles how each generation of the family invested not only in the expansion of its own business interests but also in nation building. Few know, for instance, that the first hydel power project in the world was conceived of and built by the Tatas. Nor that some radical labour concepts such as eight-hour work shifts were born in India, at the Tata mill in Nagpur. The Tata Cancer Research Centre, the Indian Institute of Science, the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, as also the national carrier Air India - the family has a long, rich and unrivalled legacy.The Tatas is a tribute to a line of visionaries who have a special place in the hearts and minds of ordinary Indians. Written by seasoned journalist Girish Kuber, this is also the on

The Systems Work of Social...

Francois Bonnici, Cynthia Rayner

The issues of poverty, inequality, racial injustice, and climate change have never been more pressing or paralyzing. Current approaches to social change, which rely on linear thinking and traditional power dynamics to "solve" social problems, are not helping. In fact, they may only be entrenching the status quo. 
 
 
 
Systemic social challenges produce bewildering results when we try to solve them due to their complexity, scale, and depth. While strategies to tackle complexity and scale have received significant attention and investment, challenges that arise from deeply-held beliefs, values, and assumptions that no longer serve us well have been largely overlooked. This book draws on stories of committed social changemakers to uncover a set of principles and practices for social change that dramatically depart from the industrial approach. Rather than delivering solutions or being lured by grander visions of "systems change," these principles and practices focus on the process of change itself. Simple yet profound, these stories distill a timely set of lessons for leaders, scholars, and policymakers on how connection, context, and power sit at the heart of the change process, ensuring broader agency for people and communities while building social systems that are responsive in a rapidly-changing world.
