Finance β¦ Penny’s Take
Revolutions in Reverse
David Graeber Β· 2011
72/100
π Worth It
Graeber writes with genuine intellectual range, pulling political theory, art, and anthropology into a coherent argument that radical alternatives are more available than we think. The essays are uneven and the explicitly anarchist framing will feel alienating to readers outside the left, but the best pieces are genuinely thought-provoking. Worth it for anyone already curious about Graeber's ideas, though Debt is probably the better entry point.
