This inspiring slogan comes right at the end of The Communist Manifesto (1848), written by the German radicals Marx and Engels. It is immediately followed by the last words of the manifesto, the clarion call: ‘Working men of all countries, unite!’ The noun ‘proletarian’ is the Communist term for ‘worker’, and this manifesto – the founding document of radical Communism – advocates a world revolution to create a new society based on equality and social justice. It was Marx and Engels’ vision that a revolution would one day abolish all class differences and working people would no longer be impoverished.
