He is remembered as one of the originators of modern anarchy, a foe
to Marx, and a radicalizer of youth through Russia and Europe in
the 19th century. His name has been honored by pop culture of late
in Tom Stoppard's trilogy of plays The Coast of Utopia, and on the
philosophical playground of TV's Lost, which features characters
named for-and often interpreted to represent the thinking of-famous
philosophers through history. He is Russian revolutionary MIKHAIL
ALEXANDROVICH BAKUNIN (1814-1876), and God and the State is his
only published work. Unfinished at the time of his death and
rambling and disjointed at best, this is nevertheless a provocative
exploration of Bakunin's ideas on the enslavement of humanity by
religion, its use by the state as a weapon against the people, and
the necessity of throwing off the chains of God-worship. It remains
a vital document of the anarchist movement, and is essential
reading for anyone wishing to understand the upheavals of
19th-century Russia.
