Description

Friedrich Engels' groundbreaking work, The Condition of the Working Class in England in 1844, stands as a cornerstone of social, political, and economic thought. As the first major study of urbanism and modern city problems, Engels' text introduced concepts he would later develop with Karl Marx. Steven Marcus, acclaimed author of The Other Victorians, provides a comprehensive analysis of Engels' seminal book and the historical conditions that shaped its creation. This Routledge edition examines Manchester during the Industrial Revolution, exploring how Engels' observations of urban conditions and labour transformed sociological discourse. Marcus' scholarly approach illuminates the context behind Engels' influential ideas about industrial society, class dynamics, and urban life. Essential reading for students of economic history, political theory, and Victorian studies, this work connects Engels' original text to the broader intellectual currents of nineteenth-century thought.
