1842. Peter Kropotkin was born

175 years ago, on December 9, 1842, Prince Petr Alekseevich Kropotkin, a Russian revolutionary and theorist of anarchism, also known as a geographer and historian, was born. He believed that anarchism comes from the same revolutionary protest as socialism. As a result of the revolution, "non -state communism" should arise - the free federal union of self -governing units (communities, territories, cities), based on the principle of voluntariness and "Nadezhda".
