Bread and freedom, by: Peter Kropotkin

Kropotkin interprets the failure of all revolutions in the modern era, because they focused on achieving everything beyond food, shelter, and clothing, which are urgent human needs, and neglected providing them to people. The public turned away from the revolution welcoming the counter-revolution, leaving the chatter to politicians and the satiated dreamers. And from here he saw that providing food, clothing, housing, and other necessary needs for free to everyone as a necessary opening step for the success of the revolution, after which anything else can be discussed. Therefore, he named his book, which explains the scenario of a successful revolution, "Seizing the Bread," starting with the abolition of private property rights, confiscating means of production and consumption in favor of the people by the people, and beginning to distribute needs for free to all residents through voluntary popular committees in every street, neighborhood, and city. This is the condition for the success of the social revolution that the book recommends. Number of pages: 250
