About *Anarchy Alive!*
Anarchist politics are at the heart of today's most vibrant and radical
social
movements. From squatted social centres and community gardens to acts of
sabotage and raucous summit blockades, anarchist groups and networks are
spreading an ethos of direct action, non-hierarchical organizing and
self-liberation that has redefined revolutionary struggle for the 21st
century.
*Anarchy Alive!* is a fascinating, in-depth look at the practice and theory
of
contemporary anarchism. Uri Gordon draws on seven years of activist
experience
and on interviews, discussions and a vast selection of recent literature to
explore the activities, cultures and agendas shaping today's explosive
anti-authoritarian revival.
*Anarchy Alive!* also addresses some of the most tense debates in the
contemporary movement, using a theory based on practice to provocatively
reshape anarchist discussions of leadership, violence, technology and
nationalism.
This is the ideal book for anyone looking for a fresh, informed and
critical
engagement with anarchism, as a mature and dynamic political force in the
age
of globalization.
