I am interested in politics, and even tho i am not a communist, i am interested in what can be learned from it and i also want to learn more about political ideologies as a whole, instead of speaking out of my ass whenever someone mentions communism and potentially say some bullshit. What do you think?
Edit: thanks for all the answers! I swear i read them all, i just don’t know how to answer to each of them, but thanks for all the recommendations!
Someone suggested critique of the gotha program and someone else said capital (four volumes!).
Those are good alternatives to the communist manifesto which is basically a handbill for convincing people to go learn more.
Of course they’re both super old and many people have written about their contents since their publication.
Being interested in politics is maybe not the best reason to be reading about communism.
