From the earliest days of evolution through to medieval guilds, indigenous nomads and modern voluntary organisations, Kropotkin's vision of small-scale, ecologically sustainable, collective communities challenged the orthodoxies of his age, whether individualism or Marxism. \u003ci\u003eMutual Aid\u003c\/i\u003e offers instead a radical, and prescient, rewriting of the whole of human history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith an introduction by David Priestland\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch4\u003eAutorenportrait\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003ePeter Kropotkin\u003c\/b\u003e (1842-1921) came from a major aristocratic Russian family but turned his back on it to embrace a life of imprisonment and exile in pursuit of his beliefs.
