| Description: |
Changing anarchism assesses the relevance of anarchism to understanding debates about globalisation and the nature of contemporary protest. By balancing activist accounts with innovative theoretical contributions, it demonstrates the diversity and enduring appeal of anarchism in a global era. -- . |
| Synopsis: |
The massive protests against globalisation in recent years have re-awoken interest in anarchism. Changing anarchism sets out to reposition anarchist theory and practice by documenting contemporary anarchist practice and providing a viable analytical framework for understanding it. The contributions here, from both academics and activists, raise challenging and sometimes provocative questions about the complex nature of power and resistance to it. The areas covered include: sexuality and identity; psychological dependency on technology; libertarian education; religion and spirituality; protest tactics; mental health and artistic expression; and the ongoing 'metaphorical wars' against drugs and terror. This collection epitomises the rich diversity that exists within contemporary anarchism as well as demonstrating its ongoing relevance as a sociological tool. -- . |
