No Gods No Masters

Description

Guérin’s classic anthology of anarchism translated and reprinted, available now in a single volume.

It details a vast array of unpublished documents, letters, debates, manifestos, reports, impassioned calls-to-arms, and reasoned analysis; the history, organisation, and practice of the movement—its theorists, advocates, and activists; the great names and the obscure, towering legends and unsung heroes.

This definitive anthology portrays anarchism as a sophisticated ideology whose nuances and complexities highlight the natural desire for freedom in all of us. The classical texts will re-establish anarchism as both an intellectual and practical force to be reckoned with. Includes writings by Emma Goldman, Kropotkin, Berkman, Bakunin, Proudhon, and Malatesta.

No Gods No Masters: An Anthology Of Anarchism is the first English translation of Guerin’s extensive anthology of anarchistic writings, originally published in French in four volumes. Drawing upon previously unpublished documents, letters, debates, manifestos, reports, calls-to-arms, and reasoned analyses, No Gods No Masters offers a serious-minded look at the history, organisation, and practices of the anarchist movement. Including writings by Malatesta, Henri, Pouget, Souchy, Leval, Voline, Makhno, Goldman, de Paepe, and more, No Gods No Masters discusses the question “What is property?”, the controversy over Marx and the First International, the Russian Revolution, the Spanish Revolution, the Paris Commune, and much more. A classic compilation enthusiastically recommended for political science students and anyone striving to better understand the anarchist philosophy and movement.
