Description

Was anarchism in areas outside of Europe an import and a script to be mimicked? Was it perpetually at odds with other currents of the Left?

The authors in this collection take up these questions of geographical and political peripheries. Building on recent research that has emphasised the plural origins of anarchist thought and practice, they reflect on the histories and cultures of the anti-statist mutual aid movements of the last century beyond the boundaries of an artificially coherent Europe.

It challenges traditional narratives by highlighting the intersection of anarchism with various global movements. The essays provide fresh insights into antiauthoritarian efforts across diverse regions, making it a significant resource for both scholars and activists interested in global anarchist movements.
