Mutual Aid a Factor of Evolution
Book • 1902
In *Mutual Aid: A Factor of Evolution*, Peter Kropotkin presents a compelling argument against Social Darwinism by highlighting the importance of cooperation in both animal societies and human history.
He draws from his observations of natural phenomena and historical societies to demonstrate that mutual aid is a crucial factor in evolution, promoting the survival and well-being of communities.
This work is considered a foundational text in anarchist communism and has influenced modern social ecology.
