The Atlantic Ocean not only connected North and South America with
Europe through trade but also provided the means for an exchange of
knowledge and ideas, including political radicalism. Socialists and
anarchists would use this "radical ocean" to escape state
prosecution in their home countries and establish radical milieus
abroad. However, this was often a rather unorganized development
and therefore the connections that existed were quite diverse. The
movement of individuals led to the establishment of organizational
ties and the import and exchange of political publications between
Europe and the Americas. The main aim of this book is to show how
the transatlantic networks of political radicalism evolved with
regard to socialist and anarchist milieus and in particular to look
at the actors within the relevant processes-topics that have so far
been neglected in the major histories of transnational political
radicalism of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
Individual case studies are examined within a wider context to show
how networks were actually created, how they functioned and their
impact on the broader history of the radical Atlantic.
