Event overview
Book Launch:The history of anarchist and syndicalist movements and the notions of transnational militancy and informal networks (Routledge, 2015)
Professor Carl Levy will discuss this path-breaking volume with its editors, Dr Constance Bantman (University of Surrey) and Dr Bert Altena (Erasmus University). This volume presents and extends up-to-date research into the history of the anarchist and syndicalist movements and notions of transnational militancy and informal political networks. It underlines the importance of other scales of analysis in capturing the complexities of anarchist militancy, due to both their centrality as a theme of reflection for militants, and their role as a level of organization. Especially crucial is the national level, which is often overlooked due to the internationalism which is so central to anarchist ideology. Anarchist discourses on the nation (as opposed to the state), patriotism and even race, were more nuanced than is usually assumed. The local and individual levels are also shown to be essential in anarchist militancy.
