Title: Nothing New, Really
Review: As an anarchist opposed to capitalism (as all true anarchists are), I found Atlas Shrugged to be tedious and half-baked: sure, if the world were made up of nothing but statist liberals and "communists", there might be some truth to the assumption that either you're an individual out for yourself, or had to be a member of the "unwashed masses". But the reality is that for over a hundred years before Atlas Shrugged was written, anarchists like Peter Kropotkin, Mikhail Bakunin, Errico Malatesta, Max Stirner and others were affirming that the rights of the individul were paramount, and that even capitalists were oppressing people, not just government. This fact was lost to Rand, who saw a Bolshevik under every bed. Rather than be drawn in to the Ayn rand cult, read a book by Kropotkin, Proudhon, or even Noam Chomsky.
Is the review positive or negative?
