De què tracta
La investigacio que Engels va fer als vint-i-quatre anys sobre com vivien de debo els obrers de Manchester, publicada el 1845.
Context i història
El seu pare l'hi havia enviat a treballar en una filatura de la familia, i Engels va fer una altra cosa: va recorrer els barris, va parlar amb la gent, va llegir informes parlamentaris i estadistiques sanitaries, i ho va escriure tot. El resultat es alhora una denuncia i una de les primeres investigacions socials de camp que es van fer a Europa: carrers sense claveguera, cases sense finestres, jornades de setze hores, nens a les fabriques, esperances de vida per barris. La forca del llibre es que gairebé tot esta documentat i es verificable. Va sortir en alemany i va trigar quaranta-som anys a publicar-se en angles. Es tambe el text que va convencer Marx que la teoria necessitava aquesta mena de material.

March 1892 edition by David Price, email ccx074@coventry.ac.uk The Condition of the Working-Class in England in 1844 With a Preface written in 1892 by FREDERICK ENGELS _Translated by Florence Kelley Wischnewetzky_ _London_ GEORGE ALLEN & UNWIN LTD _Museum Street_ PREFACE The book, an English translation of which is here republished, was first issued in Germany in 1845. The author, at that time, was young, twentyfour years of age, and his production bears the stamp of his youth with its good and its faulty features, of neither of which he feels ashamed. It was translated into English, in 1885, by an American lady, Mrs. F. Kelley Wischnewetzky, and published in the following year in New York. The American edition being as good as exhausted, and having never been extensively circulated on this side of the Atlantic, the present English copyright edition is brought out with the full consent of all parties interested. For the American edition, a new Preface and an Appendix were written in English by the author. The first had little to do with the book itself; it discussed the American Working-Class Movement of the day, and is, therefore, here omitted as irrelevant, the second--the original preface--is largely made use of in the present introductory remarks. The state of things described in this book belongs to-day, in many respects, to the past, as far as England is concerned. Though not expressly stated in our recognised treatises, it is still a law of modern Political Economy that the larger the scale on which Capitalistic Production is carried on, the less can it support the petty devices of swindling and pilfering which characterise its early stages.…
