With all of the provocative, sometimes highly destructive acts
committed in the name of anarchy, this enlightening volume invites
readers to discover the true meaning of anarchism, exploring its
vivid history and its resurgent relevance for addressing today's
most vexing social problems. In Anarchism Today, an acclaimed
scholar and one of the world's foremost advocates for the
anarchistic tradition cuts through common misconceptions and
caricatures to explore what is perhaps the most poorly understood
of all political theories. As author Randall Amster explains,
rather than being an anti-everything rationale for defiance and
destruction, anarchism is in fact a coherent set of values and
practices with a rich history and contemporary relevance.
Passionate and provocative, Amster's book offers readers an
expert's perspective on what anarchism really means, including its
relationship to other political approaches, its careful balancing
of individual liberty and a functioning society, and its
controversial image as a wellspring of violence. Along the way,
Amster addresses a number of current issues from the perspective of
anarchism, including corporate globalization, environmentalism,
warfare, nationalism, education, technology, alternative economics,
criminal justice, and even spirituality. He concludes with a frank
assessment of anarchism's impact and the role it can play in
building a more just, peaceful, and sustainable world.
