QUIET RUMOURS: AN ANARCHA-FEMINIST READER Various AK Press/Dark Star From consciousness-raising groups to hair-raising punk rockers, here's a fascinating window into the development of the women's movement, in the words of the women who moved it. These classic essays span the century, providing welcome context for feminism as part of a larger politics of liberation and equality. Critical analysis and biting polemic, whether it's Emma Goldman's attack on the suffrage movement or the debates of Second Wave feminists of the 1970s, connect the dots to show not just how anarchism influenced feminism but how feminism changed the political landscape around it. "With this important collection of and about anarcha-feminists over more than a century, stunning female anarchist heroes are restored to our collective memory." -Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz |

PEOPLE WITHOUT GOVERNMENT: AN ANTHROPOLOGY OF ANARCHY Harold Barclay and Alex Comfort (Preface by) In a completely revised and updated edition of his seminal work, Barclay describes briefly the anarchic political structures of a number of societies. He ranges over (mainly) small-scale hunting, gathering, and horticultural groups, both in antiquity and today, but includes larger scale (and complex) groups too. This book seeks to show what anarchy has been like in practice. Special attention is paid to the techniques of leadership, maintaining order, and decision-making. The dynamic interplay between freedom and authority is considered, particularly the apparent tendency of anarchic polities to degenerate into states with government and for organizations to become oligarchies. Anarchy, as Barclay ably demonstrates, is neither chaos nor some impossible Utopian dream. In fact it is a very common form of political organization and one which has characterized much of the human past. Includes a preface by Alex Comfort. Price: 90kr |

POST-SCARCITY ANARCHISM Murray Bookchin AK Press "Probably the foremost Green philosopher of the age." - David Nicholson-Lord (The Independent) A modern anarchist classic! Bookchin argues that material scarcity need no longer plague human history. Through the dissolution of hierarchal relations, social and cultural potentials can now be fulfilled in our "post-scarcity" era. When the naysayers and lickspittles ask of the social revolutionary movements, "yes, but what do you want?", well here at least is one rational answer. Bookchin gives us an inspiring vision of how a non-hierarchal, ecologically-minded and anti-capitalist society can equitably meet human needs. This Third Edition comes with a new Introduction from the Author. Price: 130kr |

RAPPORT FRÅN ETT DÖDSBLOCK Mumia Abu-Jamal Manifest I över tjugo år har Mumia Abu-Jamal väntat på att bli avrättad. Han var en prisbelönt radiojournalist, med ett kritiskt öga till den rasistiska Philadelphiapolisen, när han 1982 fälldes för mordet på en polisman. Rättegången var farsartad och trots att gamla vittnen erkänt att de ljugit och nya vittnen trätt fram som friar Mumia, har han vägrats en ny rättegång. Från sin cell på dödsblocket har han fortsatt att rapportera om USA. Om rättsstaten, rasismen och demokratin. Mumia Abu-Jamals orättvisa öde och hans djupt personliga och fränt samhällskritiska texter gör honom till vår tids Malcolm X. Världen över reser stödgrupper, politiker och parlament kravet – ge Mumia en ny rättegång! Price: 75kr |

Rebel Alliances: The Means and Ends of British Anarchisms Benjamin Franks AK Press Rebel Alliances offers an applied philosophical perspective on contemporary class-struggle anarchism in Britain. It identifies the main principles distinguishing this tradition from competing Leninist, liberal, and social-democratic groupings. From these key characteristics, Franks constructs a consistent anarchism, which both shares characteristics with politically-engaged post-structuralisms and has a distinctive ethic. The theory and practice of contemporary groups are then assessed against this "ideal-type" of anarchism. Many of the central themes of anarchism are consequently subject to original scrutiny: the nature of the revolutionary subject; workplace and community organizing; violence and pacifism; the meaning of direct action; and propaganda by the word and deed. "No one is better placed to examine the contemporary British anarchist movement than Ben Franks. Steal this book at the first opportunity."—Class War "Provides a framework for understanding, analyzing, and appreciating the myriad forms of anarchist class struggle and must be praised for its scholarly achievement and avoidance of traditional academic restrictions."—David Lamb, Birmingham University Price: 130kr |
