Anarcho-Syndicalism
ByPublisher Description
The essential introduction to anarchist theory of the labor struggle.
In 1937, under the shadow of rising
authoritarianism and at the behest of Emma Goldman, Rudolf Rocker penned Anarcho-Syndicalism
to champion the ideals of equality, voluntary cooperation, and mutual aid that were fueling the Spanish Revolution and igniting resistance to capitalism the world
over. In this political masterpiece, Rocker offers a clear introduction to
anarchist ideas, a history of the international workers’ movement, and an
outline of the syndicalist tactics of direct action, sabotage, and the general
strike. This essential text rejects both capitalist exploitation and authoritarian state socialism, charting the way for a radical alternative
of freedom through solidarity.
This edition includes a critical introduction by Nicholas Walter and a foreword by Noam Chomsky.
