First published as an Anarchist Federation pamphlet, this is Brian Morris's compact guide to Peter Kropotkin's anarchist thought: one of the nineteenth century's most serious scientific and political minds. Morris works through the key pillars of Kropotkin's vision: his conviction that cooperation, not competition, is the true engine of social life; his rejection of capitalism and the states and his case for a communism built from below through free agreement. Above all, he shows that Kropotkin's anarchism was an affirmative philosophy- not merely a politics of refusal, but a coherent vision of human society without coercion. Authoritative and timely, Basic Kropotkin includes a foreword by Ruth Kinna -professor of political theory and author of The Government of No One, the acclaimed popular history of anarchism who places these ideas in sharp contemporary context.
