Pierre-Joseph Proudhon: Pierre-Joseph Proudhon (1809-1869) was one of the most important and influential political theorists of the 19th century. The first person to call himself an anarchist, he is the author of What is Property? An Inquiry into the Principle of Right and of Government; The System of Economical Contradictions (or, the Philosophy of Misery); and The General Idea of the Revolution in the Nineteenth Century.
It was a great pleasure to read McKay's translation of Proudhon's famous/devastating treatise on Property, "What Is Property?". He includes large segments that Benjamin Tucker omitted from his own translation for whatever reason (I'd rather not speculate) and which, in many areas, give Proudhon a very different tone. This alone is worth the price, but he also includes Proudhon's economic critique of capitalism (in which you'll find many ideas that were later developed by Marx), "System of Economic Contradictions", along with other works, letters and some useful commentary. All in all, fantastic anthology.
