About the Author: Karl Heinrich Marx was a German philosopher, economist, sociologist, historian, journalist and revolutionary socialist (5 May 1818 – 14 March 1883). His ideas played an important role in the foundation of sociology and in the development of socialist movements. Marx was considered one of the greatest economists in history. He published several books during his lifetime, the most important of which are The Manifesto of the Communist Party (1848) and Das Kapital (1867–1894). Born into a wealthy middle-class family in Trier in the Prussian Rhineland, Marx studied at the University of Bonn and the University of Berlin, where he became interested in the philosophical ideas of the Young Hegelians. He was associated with Jenny von Westphalen in 1836 AD, and married her in 1843 AD after his studies. He wrote for a radical newspaper in Cologne, and began to develop his theory of dialectical materialism. After moving to Paris in 1843, he began writing for other radical newspapers.

One of the most notorious and influential works of modern times, Capital is an incisive critique of private property and the social relations it generates. Living in exile in England, where this work was largely written, Marx drew on a wide-ranging knowledge of its society to support his analysis. Arguing that capitalism would cause an ever-increasing division in wealth and welfare, he predicted its abolition and replacement by a system with common ownership of the means of production. Capital rapidly acquired readership throughout the world, to become a work described by Marx’s collaborator Friedrich Engels as ‘the Bible of the working class’.
