Description

Explore a foundational social and economic study with Engels, Manchester, and the Working Class by Routledge. This text provides a deep look into Friedrich Engels' first major work, The Condition of the Working Class in England in 1844. As a classic in social, political, and economic thought, this book examines the phenomenon of urbanism and the specific problems facing the modern city during the Industrial Revolution. In this edition, Steven Marcus, the author of The Other Victorians, analyzes Engels' original text and the historical conditions that shaped its creation. Marcus focuses on the city of Manchester, which served as the center of the first Industrial Revolution, to explain the development of these influential ideas. This work contains many of the concepts that Engels later developed alongside Karl Marx, making it an essential read for students of history, economics, and urban studies. Whether you are researching the roots of modern urban problems or studying the origins of major political theories, this book offers a clear perspective on the historical impact of Engels' observations.
