| Summary | "Socialism, Utopian and Scientific" by Friedrich Engels is a scientific publication likely written in the late 19th century. The book addresses the nature of socialism, contrasting two forms: utopian socialism, which Engels critiques as idealistic and impractical, and scientific socialism, which he champions based on materialist principles and class struggle. It serves as a foundational text for understanding the socialism movement and the historical context of Engels' arguments. The opening of the text establishes a historical backdrop, detailing the emergence of modern socialism alongside class antagonisms in society, particularly between capitalists and wage workers. Engels introduces the origins of socialist thought stemming from earlier revolutionary philosophies, discussing figures like Saint Simon, Fourier, and Owen. He emphasizes the necessity of a scientific approach to socialism, grounded not in abstract ideals, but in the material conditions of society and the dynamics of class struggle, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of socialism's scientific aspects in the subsequent chapters.
