THE RUSSIAN ANARCHISTS
Paul Avrich
AK Press

In the turmoil of the Russian insurrection of 1905 and civil war of 1917, the anarchists attempted to carry out their program of "direct action"—workers' control of production, the creation of free rural and urban communes, and partisan warfare against the enemies of a free society.

Avrich consulted published material in five languages and anarchist archives worldwide to present a picture of the philosophers, bomb throwers, peasants and soldiers who fought and died for the freedom of "Mother Russia." Including the influence and ideas of Bakunin and Kropotkin, the armed uprisings of Makhno, the activities of Volin, Maximoff, and the attempted aid of Berkman and Emma Goldman.

"It combines exact scholarship with imaginative insight, intellectual grasp and readability. The author has a flair for concrete instance that makes the milieu which he describes alive and he conveys not only what people said and did but also what they meant and felt."—Times Literary Supplement

Unfinished Business: The Politics of Class War
Class War
AK Press

This book comes as a breath of fresh air, inspired by the uprisings and rebellions of people in Britain and around the world. It shows that little has changed in our society since the beginning of the century. Despite the politicians of the right and the left trying to wish us out of existence, our class, the working class, are still here: alive and kicking!

As the left cry into their beer over the failure of their plans, we in Class War think it's about time to throw them and their methods into the dustbin of history and return to the basics. We argue for the re-creation of an independent revolutionary movement within the working class, under the control of no one but themselves, inspired by the best traditions of unity and solidarity. This is our unfinished business!

WE, THE ANARCHIST'S!: A Study Of The Iberian Anarchist Federation (FAI) 1927-1937
Stuart Cristie
The Meltzer Press/Jura Media

At last, a serious examination of the legendary FAI. And hence, by necessity, a history and analysis of the organized anarchist movement in Spain, and its relationship with the wider labor movement. By far the best book on the subject, Christie is ruthless in his examination—from an anarchist perspective—of the theory, and practice of this loose-knit group of anarchist militants. Required reading for everyone who not only wants to understand the history of Spanish anarchism, but for those that might want to see some viable form of anarchist organization in the 21st century.

WHAT IS ANARCHISM?
Alexander Berkman
AK Press

A reprint of perhaps the first and best exposition of anarchism by one of its greatest propagandists (by both word and deed) and thinkers. In a clear conversation with the reader Berkman discusses society as it now exists, the need for anarchism and the methods for bringing it about. Combines the oft-reprinted texts of What is Communist Anarchism? and the ABC of Anarchism back into its original format. Foreworded by his comrade and lover Emma Goldman, as well as Barry Pateman.
"All such people need a primer of Anarchism—an ABC, as it were, that would teach them the rudimentary principles of Anarchism and whet their appetites for something more profound. What is Anarchism? was intended to serve this purpose. That it has fulfilled its purpose no one who has read this little book will deny." —Emma Goldman
"It's a mixture of moral and practical argument that has not been surpassed. It was the only attempt of an anarchist to present his ideas in a thorough and cohesive way, ideas distilled from nearly forty years of activism. He examines how change comes about—and, just as importantly for him, why it doesn't. Perhaps in a book filled with thoughtful and contentious points, the most salient discussion is why people continue to accept capitalism and all its institutions that oppress and repress individual freedom. For Berkman, human evolution was instinctively predicated on mutual aid and justice was a kind of instinctive sympathy that can only be hindered or corrupted by government." —from Barry Pateman's introduction

  • ANARKISM

Anarchism, Insurrections & Insurrectionalism
José Antonio Gutiérrez D.
Zabalaza Books

Insurrection - the armed rising of the people - has always been close to the heart of anarchism. The first programmatic documents of the anarchist movement were created by Bakunin and a group of European left-republican insurrectionists as they made the transition to anarchism in Italy in the 1860’s. This was not a break with insurrectionism but with left-republicanism, shortly afterwards Bakunin was to take part in an insurrection in Lyon in 1870.

ANARCHISM VS. PRIMITIVISM
Brian Oliver Shepard
See Sharp Press

This important pamphlet looks closely at the fundamental conflicts between anarchism and primitivism. It traces primitivism’s basic precepts back to their authoritarian roots, reveals primitivist misconceptions about anarchism, capitalism and technology, shows how the corporate media have used primitivism to discredit anarchism, and also shows how ideology-driven primitivists, much like fundamentalist christians opposed to evolution, have picked through anthropological evidence to support their predetermined conclusions, while ignoring data that contradict those conclusions. Sheppard also considers the many primitivist straw-man attacks upon anarchism, and asks: What kind of an anarchist movement do we want — one that looks often-ugly, authoritarian social reality in the eye, with the aim of transforming it into something that will lead to freer, happier lives for all of us on planet Earth, or one that wastes its time fantasizing about a nonexistent Golden Age, and that would result in the deaths of billions if its precepts were followed?

LIBERTARIAN COMMUNISM
Isaac Puente
See Sharp

A classic exposition. "Libertarian Communism is not a blueprint for a future society. It is, rather, a set of principles to be applied by the working class, and all others who are prepared to work alongside them, for taking over and running the economic base of society so as to refashion it in accordance with social justice. While it is collective in spirit and method, libertarian communism gives the fullest possible scope to individual needs and aspirations. It is no utopian scheme, though it is the means by which to reach the utopia of anarchism." [from the Introduction]
