The Communist Manifesto:
A flawed pamphlet — but still better than its good reputation today [Translated from Gegenstandpunkt: Politische Vierteljahreszeitschrift 2-98, Gegenstandpunkt Verlag, Munich]
I. A spectre haunts Europe — love of the Communist Manifesto
1. A great work of world literature
2. The best economic prediction the world has ever seen
3. A social charter long since fulfilled by the social market economy
4. A valuable publication for moral edification
II. The Communist Manifesto — a revolutionary program: badly reasoned, slightly dishonest, and politically rather misleading
Chapter 1: “Bourgeois and proletarians”
a) The characterization of the bourgeoisie
b) The characterization of the proletariat
Chapter 2: “Proletarians and communists”
Chapter 3: “Socialist and communist literature”
Chapter 4: “Position of the communists in relation to the various existing opposition parties”
P.S.: The career of the errors of the Communist Manifesto in “real socialism”

Ein mangelhaftes Pamphlet – aber immer noch besser als sein moderner guter Ruf
