Summary "Fields, Factories and Workshops" by P. Kropotkin is a socio-economic treatise written in the early 20th century. The work explores the integration of agriculture, industry, and manual labor, advocating for a decentralized approach to production that marries agricultural practices with industrial ones. It emphasizes the importance of self-sufficiency in nations and promotes a harmonious relationship between different types of labor within communities. The opening of the book includes a reflective preface where Kropotkin discusses the revisions he made for the new edition, drawing from recent evidence and contemporary economic trends to support his arguments. He outlines the past and present conditions of industries and agriculture, noting a significant shift from specialization to a desire for integrated labor. Kropotkin highlights the role of small industries, advancements in agriculture, and the pressing need for education that combines scientific knowledge with practical skills, setting the stage for a broader discussion on the interdependence of various sectors within the economy.
