Oscar Wilde deemed his life "perfect," and described him as a man
with "a soul of that beautiful white Christ which seems coming out
of Russia." He is PETER ALEXEYEVICH KROPOTKIN (1842-1921),
communist advocate and "anarchist prince." Mutual Aid: A Factor of
Evolution, first published in 1902, is his best known book. Written
as a series of essays for a British literary journal, this
intriguing work filters concepts of evolution through Kropotkin's
appreciation for altruism and anarchy, positing cooperation not
merely as a beneficial political concept but as an approach that
has been-and will continue to be-vital to the long-term survival of
humanity. Kropotkin explores "mutual aid" among "animals,"
"savages," "barbarians," and in the medieval and modern world, and
also discusses nesting associations, checks to overmultiplication,
adaptations to avoid competition, the origin of the family, the
origin of the guilds, and other related issues. Anyone interested
in the science of evolution and its influence on the shape of human
societies will find this a fascinated read.
