Book introduction
Mutual Aid: A Factor of Evolution
Mutual Aid: A Factor of Evolution challenges a narrow view of struggle by documenting cooperation among animals, early human communities, medieval cities, and modern associations. Kropotkin’s work remains important for political theory, sociology, evolutionary debate, anarchist thought, and social ethics.
