Description: Title: The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State Author: Engels, Friedrich Publisher: Penguin Group Binding: Paperback Pages: 320 Dimensions: 7.74h x 5.12w x 0.56d Product Weight: 0.41 lbs. Language: English ISBN: 9780141191119 The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State (1884), was a provocative and profoundly influential critique of the Victorian nuclear family. Engels argued that the traditional monogamous household was in fact a recent construct, closely bound up with capitalist societies. Under this patriarchal system, women were servants and, effectively, prostitutes. Only Communism would herald the dawn of communal living and a new sexual freedom and, in turn, the role of the state would become superfluous. Ships Fast From The USA!
