Hello everyone, welcome to Theory Thursday! This is a community led project, the point of these posts is to read about 30 minutes of theory every Thursday. Then we discuss with fellow comrades the contents of the reading. This week’s topic we are covering Fredrick Engels’ The Principles of Communism, parts 14-25.
The Reading: https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1847/11/prin-com.htm
Feel free to discus below your thoughts or insight into this reading.
Next week we will vote on what to read next. Shout out to comrade GrainEater’s Matrix study group, and comrade CriticalResist8’s ProleWiki study guide, go check them out if you would like more resources and discussion on theory. Have a great week comrades, until next time!
Beautifully put, that was a very accurate summary of the text. I’m glad that this is well received, it makes me happy to know other comrades find these posts useful. I’m still working out some kinks, like finding a good time to post it, and using proper formatting. Hopefully I’ll get a little better at it each post I make!
Thanks for your reply!
One suggestion I would make is when you make a new thread, post a link back to the previous week’s thread so people can easily click back through them like a chain. Personally I think the timing and formatting so far are good, but of course, there is no harm in experimenting to find improvements. Thanks again for hosting this study group!
