The Dawn of Everything By David Graeber free pdf download. In The Dawn of Everything anthropologist David Graeber and archaeologist David Wengrow offer a fresh perspective on human history. They dispute the conventional belief in a linear progression of history and suggest that complex, yet decentralized societies have existed among humans for thousands of years.
The book questions widely accepted views on the evolution of Western civilization and challenges both Hobbes’ and Rousseau’s theories on the social contract’s origins. Graeber and Wengrow argue against the notion that the shift from foraging to farming was the catalyst for social inequality.
The book has gained international acclaim, being translated into over thirty languages and shortlisted for the 2022 Orwell Prize for Political Writing.
