"Revolution", by Carlo Cafiero 05:27 Fri 03 Aug 2 comments Black Cat Press is pleased to announce the publication of "Revolution" by Carlo Cafiero for the first time ever in English (indeed nor has it ever been published as a complete volume in the original Italian!). The book brings what is certainly Cafiero's most complete, original work to English-speaking audiences for the first time. It is also an extremely important work in that it is one of the earliest attempts at compiling a complete theoretical view of the revolutionary ideal of anarchist communism. [Italiano] [Nederlands] A visit to the Kate Sharpley Library (2012) 20:48 Sat 21 Jul 0 comments I’ve just come back from visiting the Kate Sharpley Library in California. Things have changed from the days when I could get there on the bus and we were buying our first filing cabinet. Lots of filing cabinets now, as well as boxes like the Left Bank Books archive. It’s good to look at the non-fiction shelves, seeing ‘old friends’ and new acquisitions.

Anarchism and Syndicalism in the Colonial and Postcolonial World, 1870-1940 14:30 Sat 15 Jan 0 comments Narratives of anarchist and syndicalist history during the era of the first globalization and imperialism (1870-1930) have overwhelmingly been constructed around a Western European tradition centered on discrete national cases. This parochial perspective typically ignores transnational connections and the contemporaneous existence of large and influential libertarian movements in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and Eastern Europe. Yet anarchism and syndicalism, from their very inception at the First International, were conceived and developed as international movements. By focusing on the neglected cases of the colonial and postcolonial world, this volume underscores the worldwide dimension of these movements and their centrality in anti-colonial and anti-imperialist struggles. Drawing on in-depth historical analyses of the ideology, structure, and praxis of anarchism/syndicalism, it also provides fresh perspectives and lessons for those interested in understanding their resurgence today.

Bridges between anarchism and democratic confederalism – 2 Apr 04 0 comments Introduction to this particular issue, April 2nd Bruno Lima Rocha The Life of Bakunin: anti-imperialism, anti-capitalism, anti-statism Jun 01 0 comments We do not see Bakunin as a god who never made mistakes. Of course he was not perfect. was a man, but a man who gave his all for the struggle of the oppressed, a revolutionary hero who deserves our admiration and respect. “From Bakunin, we can learn much about revolutionary activism. We can learn even more about the ideas needed to win the age-old fight between exploiter and exploited, between worker and peasant, on the one hand, and boss and ruler on the other. The greatest honor we can do his memory is to fight today and always for human freedom and workers liberation.” Anarchism’s historical role: a global view Sep 28 0 comments This article, excerpted from a talk by Lucien van der Walt, co-author of Black Flame: the revolutionary class politics of anarchism and syndicalism, covers key elements of anarchist and syndicalist history, including its role in Asia, Africa and Latin America, its impact on unions and anti-colonial struggles, and its historical centrality. more >>October 2014 Kate Sharpley Library Bulletin online Oct 29 Kate Sharpley Library 0 comments KSL: Bulletin of the Kate Sharpley Library No. 80, October 2014 has just been posted on our site.

Spring zu Komment: 1 2In Sam Dolgoff's compilation, "Bakunin on Anarchism" (Montreal: Black Rose, 1980), he reprints Guillame's "On Building the New Social Order." This is described as "the closest we can come to a clear outline of Bakunin's own version of the constructive tasks ahead after the revolution." (p. 357) It is particularly interesting because it claims that Bakunin believed in a final stage of libertarian communism.
However, I recall reading somewhere that Guillame stood with Kropotkin in giving all-out, uncritical, support to the Allies in World War I. Is this true?
Yes, he (JG) did take sides in the war. Peter Ryley has an interesting take on the debates around WW1, arguing Kropotkin etal had a position, not of uncritical support, but of lesser-evilism. It was they argued, too late to stop the war, and a German defeat was to be preferred, would open more space for struggles etc. From this reading it is not so different to those who felt an Allied victory in WW2 was preferable to an Axis one, although they would have preferred something more radical than either option. Malatesta's response was directed against this slippery pragmatism, which is why it was centred on issues of principle. Davide Turcato has also revisited the debate in an interesting paper.Ruth Kinna is editing a volume, due later this year, which should carry some of these debates.
