Description

In his groundbreaking work, Enquiry Concerning Political Justice (1793), William Godwin pioneered the political and economic foundations of anarchism, a term he never explicitly used. He challenged the notion that laws stem from the wisdom of our ancestors, arguing instead that they arise from human passions, fears, jealousies, and ambitions. Godwin contended that the solutions laws propose often exacerbate the very issues they aim to address. Join us as we delve into this thought-provoking exploration of justice and its implications for morality and happiness, summarized by Peter Kropotkin.
