Fields, Factories, and Workshops is an 1899 book by Russiananarchist Peter Kropotkin that discusses thedecentralization of industries, possibilities ofagriculture, and uses of small industries.^[1]

Before the book, Kropotkin had been known for his militant activity in behalf of international anarchism and writings on Siberian geography.^[2] Through the book, he sought to connect anarchism with science, based on sociological tendencies. The book was compiled from essays he had published inNineteenth Century andForum between 1888 and 1890. The book was first published in 1899 by Houghton-Mifflin (Boston) and Hutchinson (London)^[3] to favorable reviews among Britons.^[4] It has since been republished in multiple editions:Swan Sonnenschein (London) and Putnam (New York) in 1901, 1904, 1907, 1909, and Nelson (London) and Putnam (New York) in 1913 and 1919. Reproductions of the first and second editions appeared in 1968. A later edition, edited byColin Ward forHarper & Row, released in 1974 with more contemporary illustrations asFields, Factories and Workshops Tomorrow.^[5]
