Question 2 • World History: Issues and Patterns

Which statement most accurately describes The Communist Manifesto ?

Answer
A
It was a description of the many benefits brought to modern life by industrialization.
B
It was a publication describing the upbringing and education of Karl Marx.
C
It was a description of the class struggle and the problems caused by capitalism.
D
It was a criticism that pointed out the cruelties of the communist system.

Explanation

The Communist Manifesto, written by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, argues that history is shaped by conflict between social classes. It criticizes capitalism for creating inequality and exploitation, so the best description is “a description of the class struggle and the problems caused by capitalism.” It was not a biography of Marx or a criticism of communism.
