Summary | "Anarchism and Socialism" by Georgii Valentinovich Plekhanov is a scholarly examination of political ideologies written in the late 19th century. The work delves into the distinctions and conflicts between anarchist thought and socialist principles, critiquing the foundations laid by various theorists, including Pierre-Joseph Proudhon and Mikhail Bakunin. It ultimately seeks to clarify the historical and philosophical roots of anarchism while positioning socialism as a more scientifically grounded approach to social organization. The opening of the text introduces the contrast between Utopian socialism and what Plekhanov terms scientific socialism. He discusses the historical context in which early socialists operated, noting their reliance on an abstract notion of "human nature" to propose ideal social structures. Plekhanov critiques this approach, arguing that it lacks the rigor of a materialist perspective, which he believes should focus on economic conditions and the observable reality of class struggle. He sets the stage for a detailed analysis of how these ideologies evolved and interacted, hinting at the complex relationship between individual freedom, collective responsibility, and the role of the state.
