Iain McKay Libri

This in-depth, eyewitness history written by Voline, an outspoken activist in the Russian Revolution, pays significant attention to what the author describes as "struggles for the real Social Revolution"--that is, the uprising of the sailors and workers of Kronstadt in 1921 and the peasant movement that Nestor Makhno led in the Ukraine. These movements provide a clearer understanding of both the original objectives of the Russian Revolution and the problems facing all revolutions with far-reaching social objectives. Of particular interest are the many personal experiences and those in which the author reveals the deep divide between the Libertarians and the Bolsheviks. This edition is a translation of the full text of La R volution inconnue, first published in 1947. It reinstates material omitted from earlier English-language editions and reproduces the complete text of the original volumes.

Anarchism has been in the news recently and many people have been politicised and radicalised due to the widespread shift in public consciousness about the failing political and economic system in the West. The AFAQ speaks to all those curious about other models and serves as a resource for readers wanting to learn more. Covering topics from Why do anarchists oppose State Socialism?' to 'What would an anarchist society look like?' the two-volume FAQ stands as the go-to reference for what anarchists believe, what they want and how they intend to go about it.'
