IMDbProStarmeterSee rank
Friedrich Engels was a co-writer of The Communist Manifesto(1848), Das Capital, Volume II(1885), Das Capital, Volume III(1894) and other communist books of his own.  He was one of the greatest democratic socialists of all time.
He was a German social scientist, author, political theorist, philosopher, and father of Marxist theory, together with Karl Marx.

In 1845 he published "The Condition of the Working Class in England", based on personal observations and research in Manchester.

In 1848 he co-authored "The Communist Manifesto" with Karl Marx, and later he supported Marx financially to do research and write "Das Kapital".

After Marx's death, Engels edited the second and third volumes. Additionally, Engels organized Marx's notes on the "Theories of Surplus Value," which he later published as the 'fourth volume' of "Das Kapital".

He has also made important contributions to family economics.
