Kropotkin kembali ke Rusia setelah peristiwa [[Revolusi Februari]] dan ditawarkan untuk menjadi menteri pendidikan di pemerintahan sementara, sebuah jabatan yang ia tolak. Antusiasmenya beralih menjadi kekecewaaan ketika kaum [[Bolshevik]] meraih kekuasaan. ia berkata, ''"ini tindakan yang mengubur revolusi"''.

Kropotkin meninggal pada [[8 Februari]] [[1921]] di kota [[Dmitrov]], provinsi Moskow dan dimakamkan di pemakaman Novodevichy, Moskow.<!--
