Marx and Engles's apocalyptic vision of an insatiable system, which penetrates every corner of the globe, reduces every relationship to that of profit, and bursts asunder the old forms of production and of politics, remains a picture of our world. And the vampiric energy of that system is once again highly contentious. Theand Manifestoand shows no sign of fading into antiquarian obscurity, and remains a key touchstone for modern political debate.China Mieville is not a writer hemmed in by conventions of disciplinary boundaries or genre, and this is a strikingly imaginative take on Marx and what his most haunting book has to say to us today. Like theand Manifestoand itself, this is a book haunted by ghosts, sorcery and creative destruction.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"China Mieville","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44244360757308,"sku":"9781803289342","price":2375.75,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0714\/7706\/7836\/files\/97818032893422222222222222222222_ced52c5b-ad2a-48af-8722-0dd3218bd716.jpg?v=1776799731","url":"https:\/\/libertybooksstore.myshopify.com\/products\/a-spectre-haunting-on-the-communist-manifesto","provider":"LibertyBooksStore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
