Synopsis "The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State"

The most influential theory of the origins of women's oppression in the modern era, in a beautiful new edition In this provocative and now-classic work, Frederick Engels explores the interrelated development of the family and the state from ancient society to the Victorian era. Drawing on new anthropological theories of his time, Engels argued that matriarchal communal societies had been overthrown by class society and its emphasis on private, not communal, property and monogamous, rather than polygamous, sexual organization. This historical development, Engels argued, constituted "the world-historic defeat of the female sex." A masterclass in the application of materialist thought to history and anthropology, and touching on love, monogamy, property, and the development of the human, this landmark work is still foundational in Marxist and socialist feminist theory.

Friedrich Engels (Barmen, 1820–Londres, 1895) fue un filósofo, economista, periodista, empresario y revolucionario alemán, considerado junto con Karl Marx uno de los fundadores del socialismo científico y del pensamiento marxista. Hijo de una familia industrial, combinó su experiencia en el mundo empresarial con un profundo interés por la crítica de la economía capitalista, la historia y las condiciones de la clase trabajadora. Su colaboración intelectual y política con Marx marcó decisivamente la historia del pensamiento moderno.

Entre sus obras más influyentes se encuentran Manifiesto comunista, escrito junto a Karl Marx, y El capital, cuya publicación y desarrollo posterior estuvo estrechamente ligado a su labor editorial tras la muerte de Marx. También fue autor de textos fundamentales como La situación de la clase obrera en Inglaterra y El origen de la familia, la propiedad privada y el Estado. Su legado ha sido central en los debates políticos, económicos y sociales de los siglos XIX y XX, aunque no recibió premios formales en vida.
