The Palgrave Handbook of Anarchism cover

This handbook unites leading scholars from around the world in exploring anarchism as a political ideology, from an examination of its core principles, an analysis of its history, and an assessment of its contribution to the struggles that face humanity today. Grounded in a conceptual and historical approach, each entry charts what is distinctive about the anarchist response to particular intellectual, political, cultural and social phenomena, and considers how these values have changed over time. At its heart is a sustained process of conceptual definition and an extended examination of the core claims of this frequently misunderstood political tradition. It is the definitive scholarly reference work on anarchism as a political ideology, and should be a crucial text for scholars, students, and activists alike.

“This resource provides a thorough account of anarchist history and ideas. … This exceptional book makes an important contribution to the study of this topic. Essays could be assigned to students in various disciplines including history, political science, environmental studies, and women’s studies. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty.” (E. S. Danowitz, Choice, Vol. 56 (5), January, 2019)​
