Publisher's Synopsis
Fields, Factories and Workshops is a book written by Peter Kropotkin, a Russian anarchist and revolutionary. The book explores the idea of combining agriculture, industry, and manual labor with brain work. Kropotkin argues that this combination would lead to a more efficient and sustainable society. He discusses the benefits of decentralized industries and the importance of local self-sufficiency. The book also delves into the history of industrialization and its impact on society. Kropotkin advocates for a society that prioritizes the well-being of its citizens over profit and emphasizes the importance of cooperation and mutual aid. Fields, Factories and Workshops is a seminal work in anarchist theory and a call to action for a more equitable and sustainable future.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
