'The True Levellers' Standard Advanced', 'The Law of Freedom' and Other Writings

4.3/5 ( ratings)

In the heady and exciting days of the English Revolution, the Diggers stand out for their radicalism, and their proposals to abolish money and private property, and to collectivize the land. Winstanley was an impassioned voice, arguing passionately against injustice and poverty with beguiling logic and a burning sense that society should be more egalitarian. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of political thought and theory. Winstanley stands in a long line of radical English thought which reaches back to Wat Tyler and the Peasants' Revolt and is seen today in the Occupy movement.
