Schwarze Flamme

Black Flame is a story of counter-power: South Africans Lucien van der Walt and Michael Schmidt present a comprehensive systematization and international history of anarchism, as well as an exploration of its core issues such as organization, strategy, and tactics. From the 19th century to contemporary anti-capitalist movements, they trace anarchist traditions and their modern forms, examining anarchist positions on race, gender, class, and imperialism. Through their distinctive perspective, they place existing historiography in a new context. With its extensive scope and the international dimension of the material collection, including Latin America, Asia, and Africa, it provides comprehensive information. The book can already be regarded as a standard work of anarchist historiography: systematic, controversial, and exceptionally readable. A foundational text on the theory and practice of global anarcho-syndicalism over the past 150 years!.
