The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State


Author:

Friedrich Engels

Description:

Examines the historical development of family structures, private property, and state institutions, arguing that they are deeply interconnected and rooted in the rise of class-based societies. Traces how the emergence of private property led to the subjugation of women and the establishment of patriarchal family systems, which helped solidify capitalist social orders.
