Formal anarchist organizations disappeared in Mexico after the
1910 Revolution, but anarchist principles survive in the popular
resistance movements against the post-revolutionary governments. In
this book, Donald Hodges offers the first comprehensive treatment
of the intellectual foundations, history, politics, and strategy of
Mexican anarchism since the Revolution.
Hodges interviewed leading Mexican anarchists, including Monico
Rodriguez Gomez, and gained access to documents of numerous
guerrilla organizations, such as the previously missing "Plan de
Cerro Prieto." Using both original and published sources, he shows
how the political heirs of Ricardo Flores Magon, Mexico's foremost
anarchist, agitated for workers' self-management and agrarian
reform under the cover of the Mexican Communist party, how they
played an important role in the student rebellion, and how, in the
face of a labor movement that has come under government control,
anarchism is currently experiencing a rebirth under another
name.
