Anarchisten
'Anarchisten' Summary
In "Die Anarchisten", John Henry Mackay uses a biographical approach to delve into the fundamental differences between individualistic anarchism and communism. Through the lens of two contrasting characters, Auban and Trupp, the book explores the complexities of these ideologies. Auban, representing Mackay's own views, grapples with the contradictions of a movement that claims to be anarchist but fails to align with his individualist principles. Meanwhile, he faces increasing estrangement from his friend Trupp, who ardently champions the communist worker's movement. The narrative, while philosophical in nature, also unfolds with the intrigue of a novel, thanks to the engaging conflict and Mackay's masterful storytelling. The book's impact on the European worker's movement is undeniable, introducing Mackay's American-influenced individualist anarchist thought to a wider audience and sparking lively discussions, especially within socialist circles.Book Details
