The Conquest Of Bread (Unabridged) - E-book - MP3

Please note: This audiobook has been created using AI voice. The Conquest of Bread is a political treatise written by the anarchocommunist philosopher Peter Kropotkin. Written after a split between anarchists and Marxists at the First International (a 19thcentury association of leftwing radicals), The Conquest of Bread advocates a path to a communist society distinct from Marx and Engels's Communist Manifesto, rooted in the principles of mutual aid and voluntary cooperation. Since its original publication in 1892, The Conquest of Bread has immensely influenced both anarchist theory and anarchist praxis.
As one of the first comprehensive works of anarchocommunist theory published for wide distribution, it both popularized anarchism in general and encouraged a shift in anarchist thought from individualist anarchism to social anarchism. It was also an influential text among the Spanish anarchists in the Spanish Civil War of the 1930s, and the late anarchist theorist and anthropologist David Graeber cited the book as an inspiration for the Occupy movement of the early 2010s in his 2011 book Debt: The First 5, 000 Years.
