Its purpose was to serve as the primary political document for the newly formed Communist League, an international party that was established in London in 1947. However, Karl Marx, the primary  \nauthor, used the document to do even more. Most significantly it is a call for \"workers of the world\" to unite to overthrow the bourgeois (middle class) social order, for in the proletarian (working class) revolution, the workers have \"nothing to lose but their chains.\" The Manifesto states that the exploitation of the many by the few is unjust and that the proletariat has a historic role to fulfill in bringing about the era of communism, thus ending class struggle. The Communist Manifesto also lays out some fundamental principles of Marxist philosophy, including the following: historical materialism: the theory that class and material factors shape history alienation: the theory that workers are distanced from their products, their labor, and themselves class struggle: the theory that workers' and capitalists' interests are permanently antagonistic basesuperstructure: the theory that the economic base of society determines its political, ideological, and cultural\"superstructure\"  \nPERSPECTIVE AND NARRATOR  \nThe Communist Manifesto is written in the present tense.  \nABOUT THE TITLE  \nOriginally titled Manifesto of the Communist Party, written in its original German, The Communist Manifesto is the main political creed of the Communist League, a revolutionary political party whose members were, for the most part, German and English workers and intellectuals. The Communist Manifesto spells out the continuing issues of class struggle and the doctrines of communism—an ideology whose followers believe the capitalist system (in which private owners control production of goods) is harmful and should be overthrown.  \na Main Ideas  \nCapitalism, Workers, and Class Struggle  \nThe most significant ideas from The Communist Manifesto are Karl Marx's class analysis of society and critique of capitalist democracy. Indeed, for a work with Communist in the title, there is little written about what a communist society would look like or do. Instead, Marx focuses on the problems of bourgeois society, on bourgeois politics, and on the influence of class on every level of politics and history.  \nPerhaps the most significant insight, and one of the most frequently cited concepts, is that the \"history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles.\" It is hard to overstate how radical an insight this was at the time, and continues to be.
