Inhislateryears,Engelslivedinathree-storyunitbuildingat122RegentParkRoad,NorthwestLondon,England.AfterthedeathofMarx,thishousesurroundedbygreentreesbecamethehomeofrevolutionariesfromallcountriesandtheholylandofsocialistsallovertheworld.EngelswarmlyreceivedleadersoftheBritishlabormovement,poorIrishworkers,Frenchfleeingfarmersanduniversitystudentsinexileathome,allowingthemtorecuperateand"refuge"here.Atthesametime,hetreatsvisitingdemocratsandconservativeswithsincerity.RudolfMeyer,aGermanConservativeandeconomist,oftenstayeddrunkathomewithEngels.

Inordertopromotethedevelopmentoftheworldlabormovement,EngelsinhislateryearstraveledalloverEurope,buthealsohopedtovisitAmerica.OnAugust8,1888,Engels,hisoldfriend,thechemistScholema,Marx’sdaughterElenaandherhusbandEvelynsetofffromtheportofLiverpool,Englandonthe"Berlin"ship,andembarkedonatriptotheUnitedStatesacrosstheAtlantic.OnAugust17,EngelsandhispartyarrivedinNewYork.ThiswasthefirsttimehesetfootonAmericansoil.EngelsmetwithleadersoftheAmericanlabormovement,visitedNewYorkandBoston,andwatchedtheworld-famousNiagaraFalls.InConcord,hevisitedtheprisonandsawthattheprisonershadtheirownclubs,theycouldreadbooksandnewspapers,theycouldeatfishandbreadeveryday,andtheirclotheswerenodifferentfromordinaryworkers.Headmiredthisverymuchandsaid:"EuropeansThereisnocouragetodothis.”ThistriptotheUnitedStateslastedmorethan50daysandleftadeepimpressiononEngels.BackinLondon,hewrotetoafriendandsaid:"IamveryinterestedintheUnitedStates.Thehistoryofthiscountryisnotlongerthanthatofcommodityproduction.Itisaparadiseforcapitalistproduction.Youshouldseeitwithyourowneyes."

EngelsandMarxestablishedtheCommunistCommunicationCommitteeinBrusselsinearly1846toestablishcontactswithsocialistgroupsinvariouscountriestopromotescientificsocialism.In1847,MarxandEngelswereinvitedtojointheLeagueofJustice,asecretorganizationofGermanworkers,andactivelyparticipatedinitsreorganization.EngelsattendedthefirstcongressoftheLeagueinJune,expoundingtotheconferencethebasicprinciplesofscientificsocialism,andreorganizingtheoldleagueintoacommunistleague.FromDecember1847toJanuary1848,the"CommunistManifesto"co-authoredbyMarxandEngelspubliclysetupthebannerofthecommunistmovementforthefirsttime.Itwasadetailedtheoreticalandpracticalpartyprogram,markingthebirthofMarxism.

Thelabormovement

ComparedtoMarx'stheoreticalperformance,Engelsismoreinclinedtoberesponsibleforrealizingrightsandinterestsfortheworkingclassthroughpracticalwork.AfterthedeathofMarxin1883,Engelscontinuedtoleadtheinternationallabormovementfor12yearsandestablishedtheSecondInternationalin1889.Inhislateryears,Engelsfocusedhisattentiononorganizingthesocialdemocraticparty,thelegalpartyoftheproletariat,inademocraticcountry,andstrivingforspecificeconomicinterestsandpoliticalstatusfortheworkersundertheframeworkoftheconstitution.However,herepeatedlyarguedthattheproletariatcannotgiveuptheviolentrevolution..EngelsreflectedonthelimitationsofMarx'sviolentrevolutionin"Introductionto"ClassStruggleinFrance".HepointedoutthattheGermanworkingclassmustusevotingrightstocompetewiththebourgeoisieforeveryseatandusevotestoprovethepoweroftheproletariatinordertowinthedecisivebattleinthefuture.ThisideawasfurtherelaboratedbyBernsteinafterhisdeath,andlatercriticizedbyLenin,whichwascalledrevisionism.LegalstruggleandviolentrevolutionbecamethewatershedbetweenBernsteinandLenin.ItisworthnotingthattheSocialDemocraticParty,whichwasnotfoundedbyEngelsandlatersublimeMarxism,stillexistsinmostEuropeancountries,andhasbecomeamajorcongressionalpartyinmanycountries.PartoftheSocialDemocraticPartyintheEngelserawaslaterchangedtotheCommunistParty,orfromTheoriginalSocialDemocraticPartysplitup,andtheCommunistInternationalwasfoundedundertheleadershipoftheCommunistPartyoftheSovietUnion.Leninwastheinitiator.Inthe1940s,theCommunistPartyoftheSovietUniondisbandedtheCommunistInternationalbecauseoftheanti-fasciststruggle.Inthe1920sand1930s,Germany'sSocialDemocraticPartyandtheCommunistPartyfoughtfiercelyaroundrevisionistissues,whichwasoneofthereasonswhytheNaziPartytookadvantageofitsemptinessandbecametherulingparty.GermanlawdoesnotallowtheestablishmentofaCommunistParty.Sofar,theMarxist-LeninistCommunistPartyhasmostlychangedtheprincipleofviolentrevolution.Infact,thisisacover-upmethodforcontinuingthestruggleinthecountrywhereitislocated.

OnMarch6,1895,EngelsmadeafinalreflectionandrevisionoftheentiretheoreticalsystemofMarxisminthe"IntroductiontotheClassStruggleinFrance":"Historyshowsthatwehavealsobeenwrong.WeTheviewheldatthattimewasonlyanillusion.Historydidmore:itnotonlyeliminatedourmistakesatthetime,butalsocompletelychangedtheconditionsfortheproletariattofight.Themethodofstrugglein1848,althoughithasbeeninallrespectsItisold,butthispointisworthyofmorecarefulstudyhere.HistoryclearlyshowsthattheeconomicdevelopmentoftheEuropeancontinentatthattimewasfarfrommatureenoughtoeradicatecapitalism...In1848,asimpleHowimpossibleitistoachievesocialtransformationthroughasurpriseattack.Theold-styleuprisings,thefortificationstreetfightingthatplayedadecisiveroleeverywherebefore1848,aremostlyoutdated.IfwetalkabouttheconditionsforwarbetweencountriesChangeshavetakenplace,sotheconditionsofclassstrugglehavealsochanged.Theeraofsuddenattacksandtheeraofrevolutionsledbyaconsciousminorityledbyunconsciousmasseshaspassed.Abrand-newstruggleoftheproletariatThemethodbegantobeadopted,andquicklyobtainedfurtherdevelopment.Itturnedoutthatinthestateinstitutionsthatthebourgeoisieusestoorganizeitsrule,therearemanythingsthattheworkingclassmayusetofightagainsttheseinstitutionsthemselves.Workersbegantoparticipateinthestateparliaments.,Municipalcommitteesandindustrialandcommercialarbitrationcourts;theybegantocompetewiththebourgeoisieforeveryelectedposition,aslongastherewereenoughworkers’votestovotewhenthepositionwasreplaced.Asaresult,thebourgeoisieandthegovernmentwereafraidoftheworkers’partyLegalactivitiesaremoreafraidofitsillegalactivities,andelectionachievementsareevenmoreafraidofuprisings.InRomance-speakingcountries,peoplearebeginningtounderstandthattheoldstrategymustbemodified.Germany'suseofvotingrightstoseizeusTherolemodelsofallpositionsthatcanbecapturedareimitatedeverywhere;unpreparedattackshaveretreatedtoasecondarypositioneverywhere."
