Pyotr Kropotkin
Pyotr Alexeyevich Kropotkin was a Russian anarchist, geographer, and writer.
Born into nobility, he rejected his privileged status to become a prominent revolutionary thinker.
Kropotkin's scientific background informed his political philosophy, leading to works like "Mutual Aid: A Factor of Evolution" that challenged prevailing social Darwinist views.
He argued for the importance of cooperation in both nature and human societies.
Kropotkin wrote extensively on anarchism, economics, and science, including contributions to the Encyclopædia Britannica.
His most famous works include "The Conquest of Bread" and "Fields, Factories and Workshops." Kropotkin's ideas on mutual aid and voluntary cooperation continue to influence anarchist and ecological thought.
