The nineteen critical essays in this collection are the work of scholars from Germany, USA, UK, Italy, China, India, Mexico and the Philippines. Together they present and evaluate archival material and scholarly commentary that covers epistemology, political economy, political theory, gender studies, cultural studies, political geography, philosophy of social science and sociological studies of class-conflict. Students, activists and specialists will find fresh consideration of familiar works, such as \u003ci\u003eThe Condition of the Working Class in England, The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State, and The Dialectics of Nature. \u003c\/i\u003eThey will also be able to explore Engels's less familiar pamphleteering, literary criticism and political commentary through detailed contextualization andcareful analysis. \u003ci\u003eFriedrich Engels for the 21\u003csup\u003est\u003c\/sup\u003e Century: Perspectives and Problems \u003c\/i\u003eis unique in putting different intellectual and political receptions of Engels's work into productive conversation, particularly from non-Anglophone scholars, translated here into English.
