Blurb: “THE POVERTY OF PHILOSOPHY / Karl Marx

Written in reply to Proudhon's Philosophy of Poverty, this is among the earliest works in which Marx expounds the premises of his revolutionary critique of capitalism. First published in French in 1847, the book sets forth his views on value and surplus value, the birth of capitalism, landed property and expropriation, division of labor, competition and monopoly, property and rent, and the rise of the trade unions as a necessary basis for a political party of labor. Appendices include Marx's address on Free Trade, as well as correspondence in which he criticizes Proudhon's ideas on "people's banks" and "labor moncy." Translated from the original French edition, later corrections made by Marx and Engels are included; explanatory notes and an index have been added”
