Description: 'That we are utopians is well known. So utopian are we that we go the length of believing that the revolution can and ought to assure shelter, food, and clothes to all - an idea extremely displeasing to middle-class citizens' With its optimistic vision of a non-hierarchical society of grass-roots democracy and self-sufficient communities, this powerful 1892 work by 'anarchist prince' Peter Kropotkin has influenced activists the world over, from nineteenth-century workers to 1960s student radicals and the Occupy movement. Fired by anger at injustice but also filled with a profound optimism about human altruism, much of it based on Kropotkin's own scientific research, The Conquest of Bread forces us to imagine how society might be different. With an Introduction and Notes by David Priestland
