Add to basketThe essential introduction to anarchist theory of the labor struggle.
In 1937, under the shadow of rising
authoritarianism, and at the behest of Emma Goldman, Rudolf Rocker penned Anarcho-Syndicalism
to champion the ideals of equality, voluntary cooperation, and mutual aid, which were fueling the Spanish Revolution and igniting resistance to capitalism the world
over. In this political masterpiece, Rocker offers a clear introduction to
anarchist ideas; a history of the international workers’ movement; and an
outline of the syndicalist tactics of direct action, sabotage, and the general
strike. This essential text rejects both capitalist exploitation and authoritarian state socialism, charting the way for a radical alternative
of freedom through solidarity.
This edition includes a critical introduction by Nicolas Walter.
Rudolf Rocker (1873–1958) was a leading figure in the international anarchist movement for over sixty years.

Rocker wrote for anarchist journals in German, Yiddish, and English. His other books include Nationalism and Culture, Pioneers of American Freedom, andThe London Years.
Nicolas Walter(1934–2000) was an anarchist writer and journalist. He was a founding member of the Committee of 100 and one of the Spies for Peace, revealed only after his death.
