Originally serialised for publication in the french anarchist journal Le Revolte in the 1890s, and later translated for the Freedom paper in the UK, The Conquest of Bread is now regarded as a classic anarchist text. It has influenced generations, from the Spanish Civil War to the Occupy movement, Rojava, and beyond. We believe this seminal work should remain accessible and affordable, despite its inevitably “dated” style of writing. So, here it is – an A6 double-pocketbook edition, for propaganda – not profit. Kropotkin analyzed the development of capitalism in industrial and agricultural production and proposed what he believed was necessary to end its associated suffering. While technology and society have changed dramatically since its publication, Kropotkin’s practical insights into production and distribution in a revolutionary society are as relevant today – amid our globalised, interdependent, and resource-depleted economic chaos – as they ever were.
