The Roots Of Civilisation by Abdullah Öcalan
A wide-ranging examination of the social, economic and gendered origins of human society that contends early foraging and Neolithic communities were largely egalitarian, communal and centered on women’s roles; the book traces how domestication, private property and the emergence of state power produced patriarchy, hierarchy and ecological harm, and it advances a political critique of centralized authority and capitalism while proposing decentralized, democratic, ecological and feminist forms of social organization as alternatives.
