James Joll's comprehensive book introduces the reader to the personalities, theories and practical politics of the anarchist movement throughout its history. In the first part the author discusses the early precursors of anarchism and in Part Two he presents the full spectrum of anarchist activity in many countries during the heyday of the movement in the nineteenth century. The third section and the conclusion chronicle the fate of anarchism in the twentieth century and cover, amongst other things, the Spanish Civil War and a discussion of the quasi-anarchist student movements of the late 1960s.

Beskrivelse

Joll's book on anarchism, with its emphasis on ideological roots and consequences, as well as on the historical sweep of anarchistic movements, has now been revised in light of new historical studies and also brought up to date. The student rebellions of the late 1960s as well as the terrorism of groups like Baader-Meinhof are examined and placed into a larger context. As long as there are continuities in New Left thought and action in contemporary politics, this study will remain the classic work in its field.
