Description

Fields, Factories and Workshops is a book written by Peter Kropotkin, a Russian anarchist and philosopher, in which he argues for the combination of agriculture, industry, and manual work with brain work. Kropotkin believes that the separation of these elements has led to social and economic inequality, and that the integration of these fields would create a more egalitarian society. He advocates for a decentralized system of production, in which small-scale industries and farms are connected through local networks, rather than relying on large corporations and centralized government. Kropotkin also explores the potential benefits of technology, such as machinery and automation, when used in a way that benefits workers and the environment. Overall, Fields, Factories and Workshops is a visionary work that offers a radical critique of industrial capitalism and proposes a more equitable and sustainable alternative.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
