In the accounts of the radical movements that have shaped our history, anarchism has received a raw deal. Its visions and aims have been distorted and misunderstood, its achievements forgotten. The British anarchist movement during the years 1880-1930, while borrowing from Europe, was self-actuated and independent, with a vibrant tale all its own.
In The Slow Burning Fuse, John Quail shows a history largely obscured and rewritten following 1919 and...

In other words, anarchism opposes government in all its forms.

On October 13, 1909, Francisco Ferrer, the notorious Catalan anarchist educator and founder of the Modern School, was executed by firing squad.

Dès la fin du XIXe siècle, des anarchistes comme les géographes Pierre Kropotkine ou Élisée Reclus se sont intéressés aux peuples autochtones, qu'on a aussi qualifiés de « sociétés sans État ». Au début des années 2000, un peu partout sur le continent américain, des Autochtones ont modelé la notion d'« anarcho-indigénisme » pour attirer l'attention des anarchistes sur l'histoire et, surtout, sur l'actualité de leurs luttes.
