“So, that is my life – the life of a schoolgirl-revolutionary, a student-dreamer, a friend and lover of the great man and poet Aleksandr Iaroslavskii, an eternal wanderer, an itinerant anti-religious lecturer, a writer for Rul, a street newspaper vendor, a thief with a long criminal record, and a traveling fortune-teller.” (from My Autobiography, E.

In the United States between 1914 and 1920, the greatest armed revolutionary offensive of the 20th century was unleashed against the governmental, judicial, industrial and financial institutions of the most important capitalist country on the planet.

Strangely neither Volin, nor Archinov, not to mention other historians like Skirda or Avrich, ever gave Maria Nikiforova a place in their narratives, while Makhno himself recounts multiple episodes which shed some light on her activities. For an anarchist who lived during this revolutionary period in Ukraine, it becomes hard not to notice her: she […]

Deze verhalen, gekenmerkt door hun vindingrijkheid, risico, moed, geduld en volharding, zijn bescheiden pogingen om bij te dragen aan de verbeelding, de inspiratie, en het instinct van hetgeen ons doet […]

“Onze wil zal veranderen in een schreeuw van de ziel. In een spirituele storm. In een schreeuw van vrij leven. In een orkaan van hemelsvuur. Onze bliksem zal de huidige werkelijkheid ontwrichten, de deur naar het onbekende mysterie van onze verlangde droom open scheuren, en de superieure schoonheid tonen van de bevrijde mens. Want wij […]

“Let us point out immediately, once and for all, that we cangaceiros do not come out of the left, anarchist or otherwise; there isn’t a single ex-militant among us. (…) We have only one form of relationship with political groups and organizations: war. They are all our enemies; there is no exception. We aren’t “on […]

“The final extinction to which we are being dragged by the perpetuation of industrial society has over the last few years become our officially recognized future.” This book examines the attempt by predominantly First World governments and NGOs to utilize the spectre of an environmental apocalypse as an alibi to save “industrial civilization” by imposing […]
