Anarchists who supported the Cuban War for Independence in the
1890s launched a transnational network linking radical leftists
from their revolutionary hub in Havana, Cuba to South Florida,
Puerto Rico, Panama, the Panama Canal Zone, and beyond. Over three
decades, anarchists migrated around the Caribbean and back and
forth to the US, printed fiction and poetry promoting their
projects, transferred money and information across political
borders for a variety of causes, and attacked (verbally and
physically) the expansion of US imperialism in the 'American
Mediterranean'. In response, US security officials forged their own
transnational anti-anarchist campaigns with officials across the
Caribbean. In this sweeping new history, Kirwin R. Shaffer brings
together research in anarchist politics, transnational networks,
radical journalism and migration studies to illustrate how men and
women throughout the Caribbean basin and beyond sought to shape a
counter-globalization initiative to challenge the emergence of
modern capitalism and US foreign policy whilst rejecting
nationalist projects and Marxist state socialism.
