One of the comments frequently made about today's anti-authoritarian resistance movement is that is is merely anti ---anti-globalization, anti-capitalism etc. This series is an attempt to introduce people to contemporary anarchist theorists who have written about practical methods for social revolution.
The great classic texts of anarchism were mostly written in the 19th or early 20th Centuries. While their core principles are as valid now as ever, the vision of how to get to a free society expressed in those texts is rooted in a world situation very different from the present.
The texts read in this series are all ones written subsequent to 1990. If you know of any great modern texts that you think ought to be included in this series, please write to me at lyn@radio4all.org
