What is the source of Marx's famous statement that "The History of all hitherto existing societies is the history of class struggle" ?
Answer: C
The statement comes from the Manifesto of the Communist Party.
Section I of the Manifesto (1848), written by Marx and Engels, opens with the line that the history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles, and goes on to trace freeman and slave, lord and serf, and finally bourgeois and proletarian.
The other works are by Marx but do not contain this line. On the Jewish Question (1843) criticises political emancipation, A Contribution to the Critique of Political Economy (1859) is famous for its Preface on base and superstructure, and The Civil War in France (1871) analyses the Paris Commune.
