    That’s a great Beginner’s list. I can vouch. It’s for those who wanna start reading theory but don’t wanna start with the capital and Manifesto (Both of which are invaluable and necessary reads.)

      Let’s be honest, The Capital can be a challenging read for the folks who has little to no basis in socialist theory, or any knowledge about economics, history, philosophy, and politics. Let’s not forget about the declining reading comprehension and attention span of the contemporary humans.

        Yeah. That’s why the recommended prerequisite for ‘Das Kapital’ are the two essays, ‘Wage, Labor, and Capital’ and ‘Value, price, and profit’ by Marx.
