  1. 1. Demanding The Impossible

    A History of Anarchism

    A sweeping, accessible history of anarchist thought and practice that traces its development from early dissent through nineteenth‑ and twentieth‑century movements; it explains core ideas—anti‑authoritarianism, mutual aid, direct action and federalism—profiles key figures and episodes such as the Paris Commune, syndicalism and the Spanish Revolution, and maps the movement’s internal debates. The book balances theory and vivid historical examples to show anarchism as a persistent, creative challenge to state power and capitalism rather than a marginal utopian fantasy.
