About this book

In Russian and French Prisons is an 1887 study by Peter Kropotkin (1842-1921), the Russian prince who renounced his title to become the leading theorist of anarchist communism. Drawing on his own imprisonment in Russia and France, Kropotkin exposes the cruelty and futility of the prison system and argues that prisons breed the crime they claim to cure. Written with the moral force that marked all his work, the book is a classic of prison-reform and anarchist literature.
