ITEM OVERVIEW
"The idea of God implies the abdication of human reason and justice; it is the most decisive negation of human liberty, and necessarily ends in the enslavement of mankind, both in theory and practice."
The best-known work of Bakunin, the founder of collectivist anarchism. His ringing denunciation of religion and authoritarian tyranny in all its forms is a basic text of anarchism and has been translated into at least ten languages. This edition uses the Mother Earth Publishing Association version of the essay, from 1916, which is regarded as the most reliable English translation (from the French original).
