Cuando un individuo causa un daño a otro sabiendo de antemano que las consecuencias van a ser mortales, está cometiendo un asesinato; en la presente obra, Friedrich Engels se propone demostrar que la naciente sociedad capitalista de la Inglaterra victoriana es culpable de asesinato, cada día, a cada minuto.
