You could find the best parts at the end
This text is a compilation of texts, so there is no single line.You could find the best parts at the end, where it's both encouraging and scientific.It's amazing how these old anarchistic ideas prevail given the past of time. In spite of being around 100 years old, you can find some parts in this texts which they appear to be from a post from Films For Actions.I recommend to start by the Encyclopedia definition at the end of this book.Enjoy it

A go-to
This collection is a go-to as a reference for the underlying jealousy beneath socialism. Kropotkin is written about as such a peaceful man, yet "An Appeal to the Young" is an emotional lure to evoke people's envy and to get them to act on that envy. It is hypocrisy. He uses vague imagery to describe many concepts and to cover up the fact that he has no clue how his ideas, if he had any that were shaped beyond a soft pile that is, would work in reality.Let me quote: "Work with all, work for all - the full enjoyment of the fruits of their labor, the complete development of all their faculties, a rational, human and happy life!"It is no wonder that socialists aren't taken seriously. What does that mean?

Required Reading Every Four Years
It's simple. Change cannot come from the top down. We must dismantle the top and go back to community and individual responsibility based on a sense of doing to others as we would have them do to us. Elites are in power and will not relinquish this power. They never have.Kropotkin is an idealist. He will say he is not but he is. I fear that these days he sounds too hopeful, too trusting of the concept of human dignity, that we have it. That said, every four years, when the Republicans and Democrats go on about freedom and democracy, pick up your Kropotkin and listen to him and ask yourself, can we really be free under this or any government?

Kropotkin. Enough Said.
Arrived in great condition. I already love Kropotkin and the content has nothing to do with the seller but it's an invaluable read for any anarchist or anyone wanting to learn about anarchism.

Libertarian thinker and Anarchism
Kropotkin writings are a must for anyone interested in deciphering the problem of human freedom and liberty and to learn about the principles of Anarchism and libertarian approaches to contemporary problems
