In 'The State - Its Historic Role', Kropotkin explores the concept of the State and how it has influenced society throughout history. A fascinating treatise by one of the most important Russian thinkers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Pyotr Alexeyevich Kropotkin (1842-1921) was a Russian writer, activist, revolutionary, economist, scientist, sociologist, essayist, historian, researcher, political scientist, geographer, geographer, biologist, philosopher and advocate of anarcho-communism. He was a prolific writer, producing a large number of pamphlets and articles, the most notable being 'The Conquest of Bread and Fields, Factories and Workshops' and 'Mutual Aid: A Factor of Evolution'. This classic work is being republished now in a new edition complete with an excerpt from 'Comrade Kropotkin' by Victor Robinson.
