  • Black Flag: Anarchist Review Autumn 2022 issue now out

    The new issue of Black Flag: Anarchist Review is now available:

    https://www.blackflag.org.uk

    This year’s third issue is a special dedicated to the life and work of Peter Kropotkin (1842-1921) to mark the 180th anniversary of his birth. As such, the issue contains many rare English-language texts by Kropotkin along with newly translated articles from the French newspapers he was intimately associated with – Le Révolté, La Révolte  and Les Temps Nouveaux. We are also happy to announce that we have secured translations of his prefaces to the 1902 and 1919 Russian editions of The Conquest of Bread. The articles and letters cover a range of subjects, from anarchism to war, from revolution to eugenics. In addition we include evaluations of Kropotkin’s ideas and legacy by leading libertarian activists like Rocker, Berneri, Goldsmith and Malatesta.

We also discuss the formation of the 1922 syndicalist International Workers’ Association and include its first Information bulletin, itself an excellent introduction to the ideas of syndicalism. Malatesta is also subject of an article on national self-determination in light of the invasion of Ukraine by Russia. We end by a long critical review of a Marxist collection about the First International, exposing its assumptions and prejudices.
