Industrial Society and Its Future and Other Works

This is it. Theodore John Kaczynski's manifesto, Industrial Society and Its Future. The most radical and revolutionary text of the last hundred years, if not of all time. If so few people have actually read the text, it is because it is so dangerous: it carefully, logically, and systematically demolishes all of the most fundamental values and assumptions of the modern world. And so, when these ideas cannot be quietly and conveniently ignored, it is attacked in the most irrational or hysterical manner. Yet the ideas that this manifesto expresses do not go away—they only continue to grow in relevance as modern technological society continues to advance: "Progress" is a myth. Society is not subject to rational prediction or control. Continued technological growth will inevitably spell disaster for humanity and the biosphere. Technological society inevitably enslaves and degrades. Wild nature is the only viable future. Only the complete collapse of techno-industrial civilization can save us from complete disaster in the long-run. Reforming the system is impossible. A revolution must force the collapse of industrial society before it is too late.

Here is presented the full text of Industrial Society and Its Future exactly as its author intended, and as it is published in the latest editions of his book Technological Slavery: personally authorized and meticulously prepared by Kaczynski himself to be free of the typos and errors introduced by other publications. In addition, this version contains several other essays, letters, and stories that Kaczynski specifically wanted published in their own slim volume. These other writings, a miscellany of anti-tech related material, are published here for the first time with the consent of Kaczynski himself.
