Under capitalism, the bourgeois exploits and oppresses the proletariat to maximizes their own benefit. The proletariat has a far greater number, yet…

Communism is most famously explained in the Communist Manifesto by Marx and Engels. In this…

When an individual’s assumptions are challenged by significant discoveries, their lives are often transformed. This perspective is represented throughout Ernesto Che Guevara’s eclectic memoir, The Motorcycle Diaries, which details his arguably metamorphic journey through Latin America in the early 1950s and the diverse discoveries he makes, which are personal and political in their nature. Guevara’s varied and confronting encounters throughout his travels challenge his preconceived views of…
