The Young Karl Marx Page #8

The need of a constantly expanding market

for its products

chases it over the entire

surface of the globe

A universal commercial bourgeois society

is born,

with universal interdependence of nations.

Modern bourgeois society

is like a sorcerer

who can no longer control

the demons summoned by his spells.

Manifesto of the Communist Party

The weapons with which the bourgeoisie

felled feudalism

are now turned

against the bourgeoisie itself.

The 1848 revolution broke out

one month later.

Class confrontation in Western Europe

overthrew the old regimes.

The international workers' movements

arose from these ruins.

The Communist Manifesto has being

translated and reprinted to this clay.

Exiled in England,

Supported by Jenny and Friedrich,

Marx would keep writing

his key work Capital until his death.

An open, immeasurable work,

unfinished because the very object

of its critique is in perpetual motion.
