Anarchy After Leftism

Description

A reply to, and an assault on, Murray Bookchin's book 'Social Anarchism Or Lifestyle Anarchism,' Bookchin himself, Bookchinism, and 'anarcho-leftism'. Bob Black's book is an anthology of writings, all of which stand as articles on their own, and they all have the underlying theme not only of criticism of Bookchin's theory and writings, but leftist anarchism in general. The book is broken into 11 chapters that each cover different ground; ranging from an open attack on some of the issues raised in 'Social Anarchism or Lifestyle Anarchism' to addressing questions surrounding issues such as organisation, individualism and primitivism.
