Books that are better than the Communist Manifesto

e-seal:

communistsloth:

The Communist Manifesto is very verbose and doesn’t serve as a good introductory work. I think the following suit that much better:

Why Socialism? - Albert Einstein

A basic overview of what is wrong with capitalism and why socialism is the solution. Very short.

The Principles of Communism - Friedrich Engels

Formatted as a set of questions and answers,  answering basic questions like “what is communism?” and “What will this new social order [socialism] have to be like?”

The Triumph of Evil, Chapter 1 - Austin Murphy

Debunks commonly believed myths about 20th century socialist states.

Marxism-Leninism-Maoism Basic Course - CPI (M)

An in-depth overview of Marxist philosophy and theory, and the history of the socialist movement worldwide.

Critique of the Gotha Program, Section I - Karl Marx

Discusses the organisation of a socialist society.

For communist anarchism Alexender Berkman’s: What Is Communist Anarchism is really good (although its a decent length)
