This lecture delves into the concept of wage slavery through Kropotkin's critiques of capitalism and socialism. It begins by framing wage labor as a coercive necessity, emphasizing the struggles of the proletariat against the elite capitalists who benefit from their labor. The speaker employs an analogy comparing a concert audience to the dynamics of capital and labor, questioning societal aspirations and opportunities.
