LUCY PARSONS: FREEDOM, EQUALITY & SOLIDARITY - WRITINGS AND SPEECHES, 1878-1937 Lucy Parsons, Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz (Introduction by), and Gale Ahrens (Introduction by) Charles H Kerr Edited and introduced by Gale Ahrens, here, for the first time, is a hefty selection of the writings and speeches of the woman the Chicago police called "More dangerous than a thousand rioters!" "Lucy Parsons' writings are among the best and strongest in the history of US anarchism. Her long and often traumatic experience of the capitalist injustice system—from the KKK terror in her youth, through Haymarket and the judicial murder of her husband, to the US government's war on the Wobblies—made her not 'just another victim' but an extraordinarily articulate witness to, and vehement crusader against, all injustice." —from the introduction, by Gale Ahrens "Lucy Parsons' personae and historical role provide material for the makings of a truly exemplary figure.....anarchist, labor organizer, writer, editor, publisher, and dynamic speaker, a woman of color of mixed black, Mexican and Native American heritage, a founder of the 1880s Chicago Working Women's Union that organized garment workers, called for equal pay for equal work, and even invited housewives to join with the demand of wages for housework; and later (1905) co-founder of the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW), which made the organizing of women and people of color a priority..... For a better understanding of the concept of direct action and its implications, no other historical figure can match the lessons provided by Lucy Parsons." —from the afterword, by Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz.

MUJERES LIBRES: EL ANARQUISMO Y LA LUCHA POR LA EMANCIPATION DE LAS MUJERES Martha A. Ackelsberg Virus Sobre la bse de un estudio riguroso y profundo de las condiciones sociales y politicas que permitieron el surgimiento de un movimiento emancipatorio de mujeres en la Espana revolucionaria del 36, Ackelsberg realiza una cronica de los esfuerzos de Mujeres Libres por crear una organizacion constituida por y para mujeres de las clase trabajadora, con el objetivo de prepararlas para ocupar su lugar en la revolucion y en la nueva sociedad que se avecinaba. En la presente se analizan a fondo las razones que llevaron a un numeroso grupo de mujeres del ambito libertario a la creacion de Mujeres Libres—en contra de la voluntad de buena parte de los hombres e, incluso, de algunas mujeres del Movimiento Libertario-; los problemas, temas de disputa y reaciones que mantuvieron con este; y sus discusiones internas, objetivos y funcionamiento. Pero lo que la hace especialmente interesante es que no es simplemente un estudio historico, sino que, incidiendo especialmente en el analisis anarquista de las relaciones de dominacion y subordinacion y en la centralidad que ocupa en este la nocion de comunidad, Ackelsberg plantea que puede aportar el discurso y la experiencia de Mujeres Libres a la teoria y lucha feminista contemporanea.

NESTOR MAKHNO, ANARCHY'S COSSACK: THE STRUGGLE FOR FREE SOVIETS IN THE UKRAINE 1917-1921 Alexandre Skirda AK Press The phenomenal life of Ukrainian peasant Nestor Makhno (1888–1934) provides the framework for this breakneck account of the downfall of the tsarist empire and the civil war that convulsed and bloodied Russia between 1917 and 1921. As in many of history's chivalric tales, clashes were fought through lightning cavalry charges and bitter hand-to-hand, saber-wielding combat. The combatants were drawn from several camps: Budyenny's Red cavalry, the Don Cossacks and Kuban Cossacks (allied with the Whites), Ukrainian nationalists, and Makhnovist partisans. Makhno, a formidable and daring strategist, headed an army of anarchist insurgents—a popular peasant movement which bore his name. Mahkno and his people were fighting for a society "without masters or slaves, with neither rich nor poor." They acted towards that ideal by establishing "free soviets." Unlike the soviets drained of all significance by the dictatorship of a one-party State, the "free soviets" became the grassroots organs of a direct democracy—a living embodiment of the free society—until they were betrayed, and smashed, by the Red Army. Delving into a vast array of documentation to which few other historians have had access, this study illuminates a revolution that started out with the rosiest of prospects but ended up utterly confounded. Nestor Makhno: Anarchy's Cossack brings to life this dramatic turning point in contemporary history. More than just the incredible exploits of a guerilla revolutionary par excellence, Skirda weaves the tale of a people, and the organizations and practices of anarchism, literally fighting for their lives.

NIGHT-VISION: ILLUMINATING WAR AND CLASS ON THE NEO-COLONIAL TERRAIN Red Rover and Butch Lee Vagabond An examination of neo-colonialism and the difficulties of fighting it as it has found ways to scramble relationships such that it can be hard to clearly know one's enemy. This book also binds together sex, race, and class in a new form, a form which helps one grasp the interlocking nature of these oppressions. "The transformation to a neo-colonial world has only begun, but it promises to be as dramatic, as disorienting a change as was the original European colonial conquest of the human race. Capitalism is again ripping apart and reconstructing the world, and nothing will be the same. Not race, not nation, not gender, and certainly not whatever culture you used to have." —from the preface Butch and Red break it down, how it all fits together, how to break it apart again.
"Unfortunately I have noticed that many people take a look at the title and decide that this is one of those boring academic books. Nothing could be farther from the truth: this is kick-ass feminism as good as it gets." - Kerplebedeb |

"This collection of articles offers a unique insight into the ideas and actions behind the confrontational approach of these militants. We are not victims, we are not sheep, we all have the ability to be active participants in our own destinies." Pris: 50kr |
