Since first rattling the gates of the ruling order in 1848, this incendiary pamphlet has never ceased providing fuel for the fire in the hearts of those who dream of a better world. Nor has it stopped haunting the nightmares of those who sit atop the vastly unequal social system it condemns.\u003cbr\u003e\nIn this strikingly imaginative introduction, China Miéville provides readers with a guide to understanding the \u003cem\u003eManifesto\u003c\/em\u003e and the many specters it has conjured. Through his unique and unorthodox reading, Miéville offers a spirited defense of the enduring relevance of Marx and Engels’ ideas.\u003cbr\u003e\nPresented along with the full text of the \u003cem\u003eCommunist Manifesto\u003c\/em\u003e, Miéville's guide has something to offer first-time readers, revolutionary partisans, and even the most hard-nosed skeptics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"China Miéville","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48268473860347,"sku":"9781642598933","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/CoreSourceHub_cdc911a5-a9f2-4288-82b3-2b4372654abf.jpg?v=1779491757","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/a-spectre-haunting-9781642598933","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
