Modern Science And Anarchism Classic Reprint

Excerpt from Modern Science and Anarchism At all times two tendencies were continually at war in human society. On the one hand, the masses were developing, in the form of cus toms, a number of institutions which were neces sary to make social life at all possible - to in sure peace amongst men, to settle any disputes that might arise, and to help one another in everything requiring cooperative effort. The savage clan at its earliest stage, the village com munity, the hunters', and, later on, the indus trial guilds, the free town-republics of the mid dle ages, the beginnings of international law which were worked out in those early periods, and many other institutions, - were elaborated, not by legislators, but by the creative power of the people.
