Anarchism

Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature

In the words of his translator, Ron Jenkins: "The Nobel committee's decision to honor Fo as a master of literature is a historic tribute to the theatre, which is still viewed by many as literature's bastard child; it is also the first time that the Nobel for the literary arts has been awarded to an actor. This courageous and controversial choice indirectly expands the modern definition of literature to include the power of the spoken word."

Anarchism

(Priamujino, Rusia, 1814-Berna, 1876) Teórico político y agitador revolucionario anarquista ruso. Hijo de un terrateniente de ideas liberales, estudió en la escuela de artillería de San Petersburgo y llegó a ser oficial de la guardia imperial. Enviado a una unidad militar en la frontera polaca, se ausentó sin permiso y a punto estuvo de ser juzgado por deserción. Tras abandonar el ejército, comenzó a interesarse por la filosofía, principalmente por la obra de los alemanes Fichte y Hegel, y fue a estudiar dicha materia en Moscú y San Petersburgo. En 1840 viajó a Europa, en Berlín tuvo oportunidad de conocer las teorías de los neohegelianos de izquierda y de los socialistas utópicos franceses. Más tarde se trasladó a Dresde, ciudad en la que publicó un periódico radical que se puede considerar su primer manifiesto revolucionario. Por último, recaló en París, donde residió entre los años 1842 y 1848, coincidiendo con Herzen, Proudhon y Marx, y participó en las revoluciones que estallaron en este último año en la capital francesa y en Praga y Dresde. Detenido y condenado a muerte, la pena no se ejecutó y Bakunin fue entregado al gobierno ruso, que lo encarceló por siete años y en 1857 lo desterró a Siberia. Según parece, el gobernador de Siberia, Muraviev, era primo de la madre de Bakunin y gracias a ello se le concedió un permiso para salir de allí, un barco estadounidense lo llevó a Japón, luego a Estados Unidos y finalmente, en 1861, se trasladó a Londres, donde residiría cuatro años. En 1864 fundó en Ginebra la Hermandad Internacional de la Democracia Social, organización revolucionaria que se disolvió al integrarse en la I Internacional, en 1867. En este mismo año se dirigió a Suiza, donde apoyó la Liga por la paz y la libertad, a la que pertenecían personalidades como Garibaldi, Louis Blanc, Victor Hugo y Stuart Mill. Posteriormente formó la llamada Alianza Internacional de la Democracia Socialista, cuyo programa reivindicaba una serie de reformas que constituían la base de la doctrina política de Bakunin: la supresión de los Estados nacionales y la formación en su lugar de federaciones constituidas por libres asociaciones agrícolas e industriales, la abolición de las clases sociales y de la herencia, la igualdad de sexos y la organización de los obreros al margen de los partidos políticos. En 1870 fundó el Comité para la Salvación de Francia, asociación que dirigió la insurrección de la Comuna de Lyon. Durante la I Internacional, las diferencias entre sus ideas y el autoritarismo de Marx llevaron a la expulsión de los anarquistas del seno de la organización durante el congreso de La Haya, celebrado en 1872. Bakunin pasó sus últimos años en Suiza, viviendo pobremente y sin más aliento que la correspondencia que mantenía con pequeños grupos anarquistas. Expuso su pensamiento en una voluminosa obra, y fue su discípulo James Guillaume quien, entre los años 1907 y 1913, en París, se encargaría de recopilar y editar todos sus libros. Del conjunto de su voluntariosa obra destacan: El llamamiento a los eslavos, que denuncia a la burguesía como fuerza intrínsecamente antirrevolucionaria y propugna la creación en Europa Central de una federación libre de gentes eslavas, El catecismo revolucionario y El Estado y la anarquía.

Anarchism

In Anti-Capitalism, activist and scholar Ezequiel Adamovsky tells the story of the long-standing effort to build a better world, one without an abusive system at its heart. Backed up by arresting, lucid images from the radical artist group United Illustrators, Adamovsky details the struggle against rising corporate power, as that struggle unfolds in the halls of academia, in the pages of radical newspapers, and in the jungles and the streets. From Marx through the Battle of Seattle and beyond, Adamovsky traces the beliefs and politics of the major figures in the anticapitalist tradition and explores modern experiments in building different ways of living, in the process providing an indispensible primer for anyone interested in finding alternatives to the so-called "best system we have"—and anyone interested in joining the fight.

Anarchism

Anarchism and the City is a fascinating look at four decades of tension preceding the Spanish Civil War, and the actors in competition for control of social and economic space in the expanding industrial city of Barcelona—host to the largest anarchist movement in Europe's history. This history "from below" examines the burgeoning public sphere of working-class life and its relationship to the State, industrial bourgeoisie, and professional classes. Unemployment, rent strikes, and rising food prices are the backdrop to this laboratory of emergent urbanism.

Chris Ealham is a lecturer at Saint Louis University in Madrid and co-editor of The Splintering of Spain.

Anarchism

Written from the maximum-security prison where he has lived for almost 30 years, this enlightening memoir chronicles the militant career of David Gilbert, a radical activist whose incarceration is due to his involvement in the 1981 Brinks robbery, an attempted expropriation that resulted in four deaths. From his entry into the world of political activism as the founder of Students for a Democratic Society at Columbia University to his departure from public life in order to help build the clandestine resistance to war and racism known as the Weathermen, Gilbert relates all of the victories he has achieved and obstacles he has encountered during his struggle to build a new world. In telling the intensely personal story he is stripped of all illusions and assesses his journey from liberal to radical to revolutionary with rare humor and frankness. A firsthand glimpse into the terrors and triumphs of the 1960s and beyond, Love and Struggle is as candid and uncompromising as its author.

Order Without Power: An Introduction to Anarchism: History and Current Challenges

Order Without Power
Order Without Power: An Introduction to Anarchism: History and Current Challenges
Normand Baillargeon (Author)

New!: $16.95 $12.88 (as of 08/18/2013 16:43 PST)

Anarchism

With the rise of the global protestor—from Arab Spring to the Occupy movement—the term "anarchist" has been littered throughout mainstream media as never before. But just as frequently, its definition is skewed or left wanting: anarchists are painted as nihilists, supporters of chaos, or even terrorists.

In Order without Power, an informative primer, Normand Baillargeon thoroughly defines anarchism and recounts its long history. In outlining the forerunners of this movement, he illuminates the differences between collectivists, federalists, communists, syndicalists, and further strains such as anarcho-feminism, pacifist anarchism, and religious anarchism. With sharp examples and concise, lively language, Baillargeon describes the contributions from early anarchists like William Godwin, Max Stirner, Pierre Joseph Proudhon, Mikhail Bakunin, and Pierre Kropotkin, through Noam Chomsky, as well as the uprisings, struggles, revolts, and revolutions that tested or expanded the theories. From the International Workingmen’s Association to Haymarket, from the Russian Revolution to May 1968, Baillargeon unpacks anarchism’s position on various issues and reveals this political theory’s vibrant heart: anti authoritarianism, or the rational and conscious refusal of any form of illegitimate authority and power.

Angelic Troublemakers: Religion and Anarchism in America (Contemporary Anarchist Studies)

Angelic Troublemakers
Angelic Troublemakers: Religion and Anarchism in America (Contemporary Anarchist Studies)
A. Terrance Wiley (Author)

New!: $29.95 $28.18 (as of 08/17/2013 21:56 PST)

Anarchism

Angelic Troublemakers investigates religious and philosophical sources of modern American anarchism. It delves in-depth into the political implications of the religious-ethical visions of three American social justice aspirants. Chapters are devoted to analyzing the political philosophies and actions of Thoreau, Day, and Rustin as they manifest in their participation in various social justice movements. These three activist icons present underexplored religious-ethical visions and criticisms of the modern state, and can plausibly be described as anarchists in that they reject the authority of the modern state.

The three radicals present related philosophical and religious doctrines of autonomy, theological conceptions of love and eschatology, and pragmatic-empirical reasons of various kinds that lend support to an ethical-political practice that is recognizably anarchist in its unwillingness to attribute authority to modern states. Angelic Troublemakers considers the relationship of anarchism to their religious-ethical orientations, and the role that religiously motivated political disobedience has played in American social justice movements.

Joshua Stephens (Author)

New!: $12.00 $9.35 (as of 08/16/2013 15:01 PST)

Anarchism

Self and Determination examines the way selves are constructed through physical experiences, social forces, and cultural meanings that determine the conditions and limitations of social transformation. Joshua Stephens puts cognitive and neuro- science in conversation with Buddhist practice and critical theory, tackling "the self" as a site of intervention and decolonization. A crucial rethinking of the practicalities of on-the-ground organizing and the assumptions that drive it—from Occupy to international solidarity.

Joshua Stephens is a board member of the Institute for Anarchist Studies. His writing has appeared in Perspectives on Anarchist Theory, Upping the Anti, and The European Journal of Eco-Psychology.

Anarchism

In the format of a graphic novel and using journalism as a narrative, the story of the 2001 Cincinnati riots—the largest urban unrest since the 1992 Los Angeles riots—is charted in this visual history. The book traces the riot's genesis from the police killing of a 19-year-old African American man to his funeral six days later. What resulted from the killing was a tumultuous cocktail of nonviolent civil disobedience, frustration-fueled looting, and police violence. Told from a series of varying perspectives—activists, community leaders, and bystanders—this is a tale of an inner-city community coming together. An overlooked yet crucial piece of American history is retold in a contemporary format with an engaging narrative.

Anarchism

Translated for the first time into English, the history of the German autonomous anticapitalist movement is traced back to the 1970s in this firsthand account. Battling police in riot gear, the early members of the autonomous movement used military tactics that included barricading and hurling Molotov cocktails in protest. Dubbed the ABlack Bloc” by the German media, those tactics were soon adopted by scores of anticapitalist groups across the globe. The dawn of the autonomous faction spawned a movement in which average citizens can reclaim their lives from governmental control. Political activists and anticapitalists will find updated historical context to the movement and the current state of the German autonomous movement in this updated chronicle.

Anarchism

Anthropologist David Graeber undertakes the first detailed ethnographic study of the global justice movement. The case study at the center of Direct Action is the organizing and events that led to the one of the most dramatic and militant mass protests in recent years—against the Summit of the Americas in Québec City. Written in a clear, accessible style (with a minimum of academic jargon), this study brings readers behind the scenes of a movement that has changed the terms of debate about world power relations. From informal conversations in coffee shops to large “spokescouncil” planning meetings and tear gas-drenched street actions, Graeber paints a vivid and fascinating picture.

Along the way, he addresses matters of deep interest to anthropologists: meeting structure and process, language, symbolism and representation, the specific rituals of activist culture, and much more. Starting from the assumption that, when dealing with possibilities of global transformation and emerging political forms, a disinterested, “objective” perspective is impossible, Graeber writes as both scholar and activist. At the same time, his experiment in the application of ethnographic methods to important ongoing political events is a serious and unique contribution to the field of anthropology, as well as an inquiry into anthropology’s political implications.

David Graeber is an anthropologist and activist who teaches at the University of London. Active in numerous direct-action political organizations, he has written for Harper’s Magazine and is the author of Fragments of an Anarchist Anthropology, Towards an Anthropological Theory of Value, and Possibilities.

Download: $3.00 (as of 08/08/2013 22:04 PST)

Anarchism

A concise study of the origins and development of the revolutionary anarchist movement in Europe 1945-73, with particular reference to the First of May Group. This group — formed in 1966 by the post-war generation of (largely Spanish) anarchist militants who took up arms against Franco and American imperialism — has been one of the best known of the anarchist activist groups of the period under review. It represents a continuation of the work of Sabaté and the immediate post-war Spanish urban and rural guerrilla resistance, and a bridge-head into the next period when revolutionary activism in many countries (Germany, USA, Italy, and South America) consisted of many strands some of which were authoritarian Marxist—usually Maoist, sometimes Council-Communist, occasionally Trotskyist others were Anarchist.
Includes historical background, a chronology, and documents and communiqués from The First of May Group, the International Revolutionary Solidarity Movement and the Federación Ibérica de Juventudes Libertarias.

Anarchism

A searing indictment of Marxist-Leninist practice and the ‘slaveholding democracy’ that was Soviet Russia from April 12 1918 when the Communist Party patricians launched their well-prepared and sustained bloody pogrom against anarchists and anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist organisations nationwide; a campaign beside which the deeds of the Tsar’s secret police pale into insignificance. This is a gut-wrenching, anger-inducing account of the blatant, power-led, betrayal of socialist principles and ideals by Lenin, Trotsky, Bukharin, and all the other organisation- and party-building apologists for Marxist-Leninism and ‘democratic centralism’. The next time someone stops you to purchase a copy of ‘Socialist Worker’ or any other similar title damn their eyes and refer them to this ‘book of destinies’. With a bit of luck the angel Jesrad might be lurking nearby ready to poke out their eyes with a rolled-up copy of ‘The Big Issue’ and cast them into the gorge…

Anarchism

In Mutual Aid, Peter Kropotkin attacks the use of Darwinism as a social theory, arguing that cooperation is as important as competition. Examining animals, indigenous societies, medieval cities, and the modern era, Kropotkin demonstrates the importance of cooperation to evolution and survival. This Dialectics edition includes Kropotkin’s extensive notes. Each note is placed as a footnote at the bottom of the page in which it appears.
