A landmark work in the canon of political philosophy, The Political Philosophy of Bakunin: Scientific Anarchism presents the most comprehensive and systematic anthology of Mikhail Bakunin's revolutionary thought ever assembled. Compiled and edited by G. P. Maximoff, the volume organises Bakunin's sprawling writings into a coherent intellectual framework, arguing that anarchism is not mere chaos but a rigorous, science-grounded critique of the state, religion, and capitalism. With a preface by Bert F. Hoselitz of the University of Chicago, an introduction by Rudolf Rocker, and a biographical sketch by Max Nettlau, the book situates Bakunin's ideas within the broader currents of 19th-century radical thought. The result is an indispensable reference for students of anarchism, socialism, and the history of political ideas, illustrating why Bakunin remains one of the most provocative and enduring figures in the tradition of libertarian socialism.
