Other Worlds Here: Honoring Native Women’s Writing in
Contemporary Anarchist Movements examines the interaction of
literature and radical social movement, exploring the limitations
of contemporary anarchist politics through attentive engagement
with Native women’s literatures. Tracing the rise of New
Anarchism in the United States following protests against the World
Trade Organization in 1999, interdisciplinary scholar Theresa
Warburton argues that contemporary anarchist politics have not
adequately accounted for the particularities of radical social
movement in a settler colonial society. As a result, activists have
replicated the structure of settlement within anarchist spaces.
 All is not lost, however. Rather than centering a critical
indictment of contemporary anarchist politics, Other Worlds Here
maintains that a defining characteristic of New Anarchism is its
ability to adapt and transform. Through close readings of texts by
Native women authors, Warburton argues that anarchists must shift
the paradigm that another world is possible to one that recognizes
other worlds already here: stories, networks, and histories that
lay out methods of building reciprocal relationships with the land
and its people. Analyzing memoirs, poetry, and novels by writers
including Deborah Miranda, Elissa Washuta, Heid E. Erdrich, Janet
Rogers, and Leslie Marmon Silko, Other Worlds Here extends the
study of Native women’s literatures beyond ethnographic analysis
of Native experience to advance a widely applicable, contemporary
political critique.
