Synopsis

Rudolf Rocker's classic survey of anarcho-syndicalism was written during the Spanish Civil War to explain to the wider reading public the ideology which inspired the social revolution in Spain. It remains unsurpassed as a general introduction to anarchist thought and an authoritative account of the early history of international anarchism by one of the movement's leading figures.

Review

'With a preface by Noam Chomsky, and a fascinating introduction by veteran British anarchist Nicolas Walker, this is a timely reissuing of Rudof Rocker's classic (1938) statement of anarchist principles, values and methods.' Spectre'Rocker's vision remains as inspiring as when it was written ... and no less valid as a stimulus to our thinking and our constructive action.' --Noam Chomsky (from the Preface)
