Petr Aleksejevič Kropotkin Knihy

V tomto kľúčovom diele modernej liberálnej sociálnej teórie Peter Kropotkin tvrdí, že najefektívnejšie ľudské a zvieracie komunity sú v podstate kooperatívne, nie konkurenčné. Kropotkin založil toto dielo na svojich pozorovaniach prírodných javov a histórie, čím vytvoril prácu ohromujúcej a dobre zdôvodnenej vedeckej hodnoty. Je zásadné pre pochopenie ľudskej evolúcie a sociálnej organizácie a ponúka silný protiklad k zásadám sociálneho darwinizmu. Taktiež uvádza presvedčivé dôkazy o vrodenej kompatibilite ľudskej prirodzenosti s anarchistickou spoločnosťou. Kropotkinova základná argumentácia je správna, pretože boj sa vyskytuje v mnohých formách a niektoré vedú k spolupráci medzi členmi druhu ako najlepšej ceste k výhodám pre jednotlivcov. Kropotkin hlboko ovplyvnil ľudskú biológiu svojou teóriou vzájomnej pomoci a môže byť považovaný za zakladateľa modernej sociálnej ekológie.

Kniha Historická úloha státu, napsaná Petrem Kropotkinem na konci 19. století, reflektuje intenzivní sociální a politické změny v Evropě, kdy se rozvíjel průmyslový kapitalismus, vedoucí k nerovnostem a vykořisťování pracujících tříd. Kropotkin zdůrazňuje, že stát a kapitalismus jsou neoddělitelné instituce, které se historicky vyvíjely společně a vzájemně se posilovaly. Jeho analýza státní moci ukazuje, jak vytváří hierarchické struktury a centralizovanou autoritu, což často potlačuje individuální svobodu. Místo toho navrhuje spolupráci na základě dobrovolné solidarity a vzájemné pomoci, což by vedlo k harmoničtější a spravedlivější společnosti. Kropotkinův anarchistický pohled, zasazený do socialistického hnutí, zdůrazňuje autonomii jednotlivce a odmítá nadvládu státní moci. Kriticky hodnotí státní instituce a představuje alternativní model organizace společnosti založený na rovnosti a svobodě. Nové vydání obsahuje studii politické filosofky Ruth Kinny, která se zabývá Kropotkovou sociologií státu z transnacionálního pohledu.

Die vorliegende Ausgabe von Kropotkins "Anarchistische Moral" bietet eine sorgfältig überarbeitete Neuauflage des ursprünglichen Textes von 1889. Sie wurde an die neue deutsche Rechtschreibung angepasst und erscheint im lesefreundlichen Großdruck. Der Band, Teil der Berliner Ausgabe von 2023, beinhaltet eine historische Umschlagabbildung des Autors um 1900. Kropotkins Werk untersucht die moralischen Grundlagen des Anarchismus und fordert eine ethische Neuausrichtung der Gesellschaft. Die Ausgabe ist in einem ansprechenden Großformat gestaltet und eignet sich sowohl für Fachinteressierte als auch für eine breitere Leserschaft.

Analysujeme-li kteroukoliv sociální teorii, brzo zpozorujeme, že obsahuje nejen nějaký program strany a ideál přestavby společnosti, ale že se všeobecně pojí k nějakému filosofickému systému - k všeobecnému pojetí přírody a lidských společností. Na tomto základě se Kropotkin v jednom zesvých nejzákladnějších děl pokouší dokázat, že jeho (anarchokomunistické) pojetí anarchie představuje nutný důsledek všeobecného velkého probuzení se přírodních věd, které se událo během 19. století. Sepsal tak nejen filosofický, ale i teoretický a praktický základ moderního anarchismu.

"This edition is based on the 1909 edition, translated by N.F. Dryhurst"--Editor's note.

This is a new translation from the French original by Iain McKay except for a few chapters previously translated by Nicolas Walter. It includes all the original 1885 text along with the preface to the 1904 Italian as well as the preface and afterward to the 1919 Russian editions. It also includes many articles on the labour movement written by Kropotkin for Le Revolte which show how he envisioned getting from criticism to a social revolution, and a comprehensive glossary and an introduction by Iain McKay. This is the definitive edition of an anarchist classic.

Exploring the thoughts of Peter Kropotkin, this anthology offers a compelling perspective on communist society during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The collection presents two significant works that delve into Kropotkin's ideas, encouraging readers to reflect on his critiques and visions for social organization. Through his unique lens, the anthology invites a deeper understanding of historical and ideological contexts, highlighting Kropotkin's influence on anarchist theory and communal living.

Exploring the inevitability of Socialism, this pamphlet by renowned anarchist philosopher Peter Kropotkin delves into the role of anarchism in the pursuit of social justice. It presents a compelling argument for the integration of anarchist principles within the broader struggle for a fairer society, making it a significant work in radical literature.

The biography explores the life of Peter Alexeyevich Kropotkin, a prominent figure in the anarchist movement and a communist advocate. Known as the "anarchist prince," Kropotkin's ideals and philosophies are examined, alongside his unique perspective on society and politics. His life, described by Oscar Wilde as "perfect," reflects his deep commitment to social justice and revolutionary thought, making him a significant historical figure in the context of Russian and global anarchism.

Important writings by the leading theorist of anarchism, including the brief but moving "Spirit of Revolt," "Law and Authority," an argument for social control through custom and education, and other documents. An invaluable addition to the libraries of instructors, students, and anyone interested in history, government, and anarchist thought.

A classic in philosophy and ethics, and one of the foundational texts of the anarchist movement of the late 19th and early 20th century. Starting with the moral principle in nature, to the moral conceptions of primitive people, Kropotkin traces the development of moral teachings from ancient Greece, Christianity and the Middle Ages through to the 19th century philosophers. In this way Ethics gives answers to two fundamental problems of morality: its origin and historical development, and its goals and standards. Kropotkin is still today one of the most influential moral voices in the quest for universal human happiness. He wanted this book "to inspire the young generation to struggle, to implant in them faith in the justice of social revolution, and to light in their hearts the fire of self-sacrifice." This was Kropotkin's final masterpiece, which was left unfinished at his death and is the swan song of this great humanitarian, scientist, and anarchist. It constitutes the crowning work and the resume of all his scientific, philosophical, and sociological views, at which he arrived in the course of his long and unusually rich life.

Kropotkin's Mutual Aid: A Factor of Evolution represents one of the major contributions to twentieth-century political thought. A classic, though often misunderstood text of anarchist thinking, the book offers an exciting and viable alternative to our current political models. Kropotkin's idea of mutual aid is the radical practice of caring for each other while actively working to change the world. This new and authoritative edition of Kropotkin's important and unique contribution to the history of socialist ideas and anarchist ideology includes a critically informed afterword by Ruth Kinna that elucidates the book's relevance for today.

Focusing on the revolutionary government that briefly ruled Paris in 1871, this historical account by Karl Marx delves into the events leading to the Paris Commune, its policies, and its eventual defeat. Marx analyzes the socio-political conditions that birthed the Commune, viewing it as a pioneering effort by the working class to create a socialist government and a new democracy. He critiques its initiatives aimed at worker control, social welfare, and education, while also discussing its military strategies. This work is crucial for understanding early socialist movements and workers' rights struggles.

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 traces the evolution of Kropotkin's thought, and the volume also includes a number of his shorter writings.

Admired by Leo Tolstoy from the last century to Lewis Mumford in our own, Peter Kropotkin's works were ahead of their time.

The fourth in AK Press’ Working Classics series, The Conquest of Bread is Peter Kropotkin’s most extensive study of human needs and his outline of the most rational and equitable means of satisfying them. A combination of detailed historical analysis and far-reaching Utopian vision, this is a step-by-step guide to social revolution: the concrete means of achieving it, and the world that humanity’s “constructive genius” is capable of creating. Includes a new introduction that historically situates and discusses the contemporary relevance of Kropotkin’s ideas.

Focusing on the golden age of Russian literature, this work by Peter Kropotkin, a renowned anarchist and exile, offers a unique perspective on the nation's literary history. It highlights significant authors and movements, showcasing the richness and depth of Russian writing during this pivotal period. Kropotkin's insights provide a blend of personal experience and scholarly analysis, making it a valuable resource for understanding the cultural and historical context of Russian literature.

Assembled in English for the first time, an unabridged gem from anarchism's famous theorist.

Amid the political clashes, complexities, and personalities in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Peter Kropotkin stands out. Born a prince in Tsarist Russia and sent to Siberia to learn a militaristic, aristocratic trade, he instead renounced his titles and took up the "beautiful idea" of anarchism. He would become known as a passionate advocate of a world without borders, kings, or bosses. From a Russian cell to France, to London and Brighton, he used his extraordinary mind to dissect the birth of State power and present a different vision, in which the human impulse to liberty can be found throughout history, undying even in times of defeat. In the three essays presented here, accompanied by bibliographic notes, Kropotkin distills his many insights into brief but brilliant pieces that resonate for contemporary audiences.

Armed with a mass of figures, Kropotkin puts forward the evidence for communities and countries being self-sufficient in food and manufacturing, rather than the richer people and countries paying the poorer people and countries to do their work for them. Rather than forcing many of us to live our lives working meaningless jobs, this combination of evenly-distributed manual work with brain work would allow us all to live fuller, richer lives.

The humane yet devastating critique of how modern society is organized with the brutal few clinging onto their wealth and privileges at the expense of the many Peter Kropotkin's anarchist texts had a fundamental impact on 19th and 20th century radicals of all kinds. These essays from The Conquest of Bread are bravura examples of his optimistic and angry vision of a world in which the just actions of the many can destroy the grip of the few. Throughout history, some books have changed the world. They have transformed the way we see ourselves - and each other. They have inspired debate, dissent, war and revolution. They have enlightened, outraged, provoked and comforted. They have enriched lives--and upended them. Now Penguin brings you a new set of the acclaimed Great Ideas, a curated library of selections from the works of the great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries whose ideas shook civilization and helped make us who we are.

The book critiques the penal system, arguing that prisons perpetuate crime rather than rehabilitate offenders. It highlights the cyclical nature of incarceration, where released individuals often lack support, skills, and hope, leading to a high likelihood of reoffending, often with more severe crimes. Kropotkin's insights remain relevant nearly a century later, emphasizing the need for reform in how society addresses crime and punishment.

Focusing on the oppressive conditions under the Czar's regime, this 1909 pamphlet by Peter Kropotkin urges British intervention in Russia. It critiques the 1905 Manifesto's failure to deliver genuine reform and exposes the harsh realities of prisons marked by overcrowding, brutality, and disease. Kropotkin presents various topics, including prison suicides, executions, and police involvement in violence, aiming to raise awareness and provoke action from the British public against the injustices faced by the Russian people.

"Zwei große Strömungen bereiteten die Revolution vor, führten sie herbei und führten sie durch. Die eine Strömung, die ideelle die Flut neuer Ideen über die politische Erneuerung der Staaten , kam von der Bourgeoisie. Die andere, die des Handelns, kam von den Volksmassen den Bauern und den städtischen Proletariern, die unverzügliche und durchschlagende Verbesserungen ihrer wirtschaftlichen Lage zu erreichen suchten. Und als diese beiden Strömungen sich in einem gemeinsamen Ziele trafen, als sie sich eine Zeitlang gegenseitigen Beistand leisteten, da war es zur Revolution gekommen." - Pjotr Alexejewitsch Kropotkin - Gröls-Verlag (Edition Werke der Weltliteratur)
