This volume describes the various movements and thinkers who wanted
social change without state intervention. It covers cases in
Europe, the Americas, Africa and Asia. The first part discusses
early egalitarian experiments and ideologies in Asia, Europe and
the Islamic world, and then moves to early socialist thinkers in
Britain, France, and Germany. The second part deals with the rise
of the two main currents in socialist movements after 1848:
anarchism in its multiple varieties, and Marxism. It also pays
attention to organisational forms, including the International
Working Men's Association (later called the First International);
and it then follows the further development of anarchism and its
'proletarian' sibling, revolutionary syndicalism – its rise and
decline from the 1870s until the 1940s on different continents. The
volume concludes with critical essays on anarchist transnationalism
and the recent revival of anarchism and syndicalism in several
parts of the world.
