Except for a few glimpses of genius, it's strange how Kropotkin makes such a bad, propaganda-loaded, starry-eyed case for the feasibility of anarchist communism. And it's even stranger that LeGuin's science fiction "The Dispossessed" explains and explores the topic so much better. ( )0.010 seconds to build listing no reviews | add a review
Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0521459907, Paperback)The Conquest of Bread is Peter Kropotkin's most detailed description of the ideal society, embodying anarchist communism, and of the social revolution that was to achieve it. Marshall Shatz's introduction to this edition traces Kropotkin's evolution as an anarchist, from his origins in the Russian aristocracy to his disillusionment with the Russian Revolution. The volume also includes a number of his shorter writings, including a hitherto untranslated chapter from his classic Memoirs of a Revolutionist.(retrieved from Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:57:53 -0400) The first test round has been closed.
