'The standard book on anarchism for the twenty-first century.
Written with brio, quiet insight and clarity' Carl Levy A
magisterial study of the history and theory of one of the most
controversial political movements Anarchism routinely gets a bad
press. It's usually seen as meaning chaos and disorder -- or even
nothing at all. And yet, from Occupy Wall Street to Pussy Riot,
Noam Chomsky to David Graeber, this philosophical and political
movement is as relevant as ever. Contrary to popular perception,
different strands of anarchism -- from individualism to
collectivism -- do follow certain structures and a shared sense of
purpose: a belief in freedom and working towards collective good
without the interference of the state. In this masterful,
sympathetic account, political theorist Ruth Kinna traces the
tumultuous history of anarchism, starting with thinkers and
activists such as Peter Kropotkin and Emma Goldman and through key
events like the Paris Commune and the Haymarket affair. Skilfully
introducing us to the nuanced theories of anarchist groups from
Russia to Japan to the United States, The Government of No One
reveals what makes a supposedly chaotic movement particularly
adaptable and effective over centuries -- and what we can learn
from it.
