What was Karl Marx most famous for writing?

  1. The Communist Manifesto

  2. The Capital

  3. The Elements of Sociology

  4. The Rules of Society

The correct answer is: The Communist Manifesto

Karl Marx is most famous for writing The Communist Manifesto, which he co-authored with Friedrich Engels. This political pamphlet includes Marx's theories on the nature of class struggle and the capitalist system. Option B, The Capital, is a multi-volume work that expands upon Marx's ideas on economics and capitalism. Option C, The Elements of Sociology, was written by Auguste Comte and is considered the first systematic study of sociology. Option D, The Rules of Society, is not a specific work associated with Marx and is not part of his body of writings. Therefore, the most accurate and complete answer is A.
