Mutual Aid: A Factor of Evolution
Mutual Aid: A Factor of Evolution is a 1902 collection of anthropological essays by Russian naturalist and anarchist philosopher Peter Kropotkin. The essays, initially published in the English periodical The Nineteenth Century between 1890 and 1896, explore the role of mutually beneficial cooperation and reciprocity (or "mutual aid") in the animal kingdom and human societies both past and present. It is an argument against theories of social Darwinism that emphasize competition and survival of the fittest, and against the romantic depictions by writers such as Jean-Jacques Rousseau, who thought that cooperation was motivated by universal love. Instead, Kropotkin argues that mutual aid has pragmatic advantages for the survival of human and animal communities and, along with the conscience, has been promoted through natural selection.

The Neighborhood Meeting That Accidentally Started a Global Movement. AI-Generated.
I still remember the smell of fresh coffee and homemade lamingtons at that first meeting in suburban Melbourne back in 2014. Nobody called it historic. Nobody took minutes. We were just neighbors worried about Mrs. Chen down the street who couldn't afford her medications, and the Morrison family whose breadwinner had lost his job at the factory.
