9781849351706: Direct Struggle Against Capital: A Peter Kropotkin Anthology

Synopsis

Peter Kropotkin is by far anarchism's most influential theorist, and Direct Struggle Against Capital is the most extensive collection of his writings available in English. Over half the selections have been translated for the first time or recovered from long-out-of-print pamphlets and newspapers. The result is a volume that provides an introduction to classic texts, while showing new facets of a familiar and canonical figure. Direct Struggle Against Capital paints a detailed portrait of Kropotkin the revolutionary, the man Emma Goldman described as someone for whom anarchism was not an ideal for the select few. It was a constructive social theory, destined to usher in a new world for all of mankind. Fully annotated and featuring a lengthy historical introduction, biographical sketch, glossary, and index.
