The term "Libertarian" was first coined in 1857 to summarise opposition to the authoritarian relations generated by the state, capitalism, and patriarchy—and the desire to end them. This anthology brings together 160 years of libertarian writings that are all united by a love of freedom and a desire to change the world to allow every individual to flourish.
The first volume includes an excellent introduction outlining the reason and argument of this work by Iain Mckay.
The second volume includes old favourites like Kropotkin, Magon, Ruhle, Makhno and Joe Hill as well as many other less well known libertarians from the early-twentieth century.
The third volume covers Kronstadt, the second world war, the Spanish Civil War and the rise of feminism and include Goldman, Dolgoff, Ward and Vaneigem amongst many others.
The final volume brings the arguments up to date with Meltzer, Christie, Guerin, Black and Chomsky all chipping in, along with many others.
