Fields, Factories, and Workshops

More about the book

Armed with a mass of figures, Kropotkin puts forward the evidence for communities and countries being self-sufficient in food and manufacturing, rather than the richer people and countries paying the poorer people and countries to do their work for them. Rather than forcing many of us to live our lives working meaningless jobs, this combination of evenly-distributed manual work with brain work would allow us all to live fuller, richer lives.
