The Conquest Of Bread (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781163489574)

The Conquest of Bread is a political and philosophical treatise written by the Russian anarchist thinker, Peter Kropotkin. The book was first published in 1892 and explores the idea of a society organized around the principles of mutual aid and voluntary cooperation. Kropotkin argues that the current economic and social systems are based on exploitation and inequality, and suggests that a more equitable and sustainable society can be created through the collective ownership of land and resources, the elimination of wage labor, and the establishment of a decentralized, self-governing network of communities. The book also critiques the concept of the state and advocates for the abolition of all forms of government and hierarchy. The Conquest of Bread remains a seminal work in anarchist and socialist thought, and continues to influence contemporary debates around issues of economic justice and political organization.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
