The passion for destruction is also a creative passion.— Mikhail Bakunin, 1842
The sentence everyone quotes and no one reads — and the builder hiding inside the destroyer. A book by Raed Saber Elaydi, PhD.
Paperback · Ebook
The argument
There is a sentence on your desk you have been using as a coaster. Everyone at the conference has quoted it; almost no one has read it. Startup Anarchist opens the envelope.
The pull you felt before you had the language for it — the refusal to accept that the existing arrangement is the only arrangement — is older and more serious than the word “entrepreneurship.” Across three movements the book traces it from Bakunin’s stolen sentence, through the two houses of competition and cooperation, to a structure with no throne in it and a seed that waits a hundred years in the ground for the heat that lets it grow.
“The same hand that pulls down the wall is the hand that draws the new room.”

Destruction
that grows
Paperback and ebook, from Raed Press in 2026. The wreckingball on the cover is the argument: the same force that brings the wall down is the one the trees grow out of.
