Bakunin: Statism and Anarchy (Cambridge Texts in the History of Political Thought)

great product, great seller

A must have if you want to understand what Anarchism is. One of the classic literatures on the subject. Explains why classical anarchists does not support States dominated by Communists, Socialists & Capitalists. Could be the granddaddy of Libertarian ideology.

You who are viewing this page should congratulate yourself for being willing enough to explore what Anarchism is all about. I commend you once again but reward yourself by obtaining this book. Any of Bakunin's writings are well worth it, it is a travesty that Anarchism has been dismissed awaken yourself to the possiblity and don't be afraid to ask why not.

If you love to read the works of Lenin and other Marxist leaders and scholars, you might want to read this magnificent work as well. Bakunin's conception of Anarchy has the same end with that of the communists. They only differ in the means that is to be used in attaining an equal and stateless society.

Michael Bakunin was born landed Russian nobility but he gave all that up to fight for a more just social order. This book is a fascinating read for any student of Politcal Science or Sociology. As Marx's arch rival at the International Working Man's Association Bakunin believed that revolution would come from the rabble of society not the well organized industrual workers as Marx beleived. This book takes you to exile in Siberia to the politically charged streets of Paris. One of the best books I have ever read.
