About AK Press
AK Press is a worker-run collective that publishes and
distributes radical books, visual and audio media, and other mindaltering material. Were small: a half-dozen people who work long hours for short money, because we believe in what we do. Were anarchists, which is reflected both in the books we provide and in the way we organize our business. Decisions at AK Press are made collectively, from what we publish, to what we distribute and how we structure our labor. All the work, from sweeping floors to answering phones, is shared. When the telemarketers call and ask whos in charge? the answer is: everyone. Our goal isnt profit (although we do have to pay the rent). Our goal is supplying radical words and images to as many people as possible. The books and other media we distribute are published by independent presses, not the corporate giants. We make them widely available to help you make positive (or, hell, revolutionary) changes in the world. The titles we carry are hand-selected by the AK Press collective, and most of them arent things youre likely to stumble upon in a corporate chain store. The items in this catalog are available to bookstores, infoshops, rogue tablers, and individuals. While we try to keep all the items listed in stock, occasionally things go in and out of print or are temporarily unavailablewe apologize in advance for any inconvenience. All prices were correct when we went to print, but are subject to change. For the most current product info and to see the newest items (we update the website with new products weekly), check us out at www.akpress.org. While youre there, check out the Bookmobile to see if AK Press will be in your neck of the woods soon, to sign up for our mailing lists for updates on new products and events, or to learn about Friends of AK Press. No government, revolutionary or otherwise, has ever liberated its citizens from gender, racial, or class oppression. No government has ever developed a model for an environmentally sustainable society. With a record like that, its strange that anyone still backs that particular horse. Back in the day, as socialist ideas were developing and confronting the emerging capitalist system, revolutionaries claimed that the emancipation of the working class is the task of the workers themselves. Anarchists still make that claim. We dont advocate no control, but insist on asking control by whom? We work to destroy arbitrary power (political, economic, and social), to take decision-making power away from officials, while developing our ability to fill that void and provide for ourselves. Peoples governments invariably become calcified and abandon the struggle for human freedom. This is why we identify with the liberatory strains within the history of socialismthe unbroken thread of impassioned resistance against both the terrors of capitalism and the tyranny of government. Anarchism doesnt tell people what to do. It tells them that they have the ability to make decisions about the issues that affect them. Anarchism, and the anarchist movement, is about emancipation, empowerment, and agency. Ask yourself this: what would your ideal transportation system, agricultural system, neighborhood, school, or workplace look like? Now ask yourself how much influence you and the people around you have over these issues? Can we afford to leave these decisions to the same people who have been screwing up our lives thus far? Evolutionary biologist Stephen Jay Gould once wrote, I am somehow less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einsteins brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops. The repressive hierarchies of capitalism and the state create human beings who are mere shells of what we could be, stunting us mentally, physically, and emotionally. Adding insult to injury, were then taught to blame ourselves for this situation, instead of looking for the institutional roots of our problems. Because destroying one form of oppression only leaves the others to fester, anarchism tries to focus on all unequal power relations simultaneously. Capitalism and the state didnt invent racism, patriarchy, or gender oppression, but they use a variety of divisive tactics to bolster our dependence on them. Understanding how oppressions are interlinked is an important step in overcoming them, as well as a way to practice freedom here and now, rather than relegating it to some distant future. For us, anarchism is a practical framework for working out these issues. Its a revolutionary analysis that helps us understand the roots of domination, both as individuals and as members of exploited social groups. It offers a useful and instructive history of theoretical and practical experimentation by people who have worked to expand the definition of freedom itself by fighting those who violently constrain and deny it.
What Do You Mean By Anarchism?

Like all really good ideas, writes Clifford Harper, Anarchy is pretty simple when you get down to ithuman beings are at their best when they are living free of authority, deciding things among themselves rather than being ordered about. Anarchism means abolishing the state and all coercive social relations. It means a society in which individuals create and control their own collective organizations to meet their social and economic needs. These organizations would federate and democratically coordinate (rather than compete) among themselves without any government oversight. Some say that this is impossible, that without governmental authority wed descend into violence, lawlessness, and corruption. But, look around: isnt that pretty much what we have now? Government is a centralized force that imposes rules from above, suppressing individual initiative in the interests of a small minority. Capitalism is an economic system based on exploitation, private ownership (theft) of societys resources, and a logic of ruthless competition. Rather than accept these human constructions as natural, AK Press draws on a rich history of folks from all over the planet and from all walks of life who have imagined, fought for, and actually achieved something better.

ABOUT AK PRESS
What is a collective?
A collective is a group of individuals who work together on a common project without relying on internal hierarchies. Collectives can be large or small. They might exist temporarily or over long periods, and membership in them is voluntary. Any group whether its a social club, NGO, or political organizationthat has a board of directors, boss, manager, guru, or president is not a collective. In our current society, most formal organizations use a system of ranking that concentrates decision-making power in the hands of a minority that then uses this power to serve their own interests. This is exactly what collectives are designed to prevent. In collectives, leadership happens naturally and fluidly. All skills and knowledge are shared, not hoarded by an elite. This means that duties and responsibilities can be rotated among a collectives members and that they can be revoked if anyone starts abusing their power. This horizontal structure is a dynamic and vital way to constantly increase worker-empowerment. The AK Press collective functions with a high level of organization and accountability. We work a minimum of forty hours per week, plus additional nights and weekends. We have regularly scheduled meetings to share information about the different aspects of our business so we can make collective decisions on a wide range of issues: the items we publish and distribute, our overall financial health, our political direction, the events we host and attend, the mutual aid we offer to other groups, and whatever else comes across our desks. However, were not a singularly focused or homogenous group. Right now, were very different individuals working together on a common project. That project thrives as much on our differences as on our similarities, as well as on the spirit of constant reflection and engagement with which we face each new challenge.
So what makes AK Press anarchist?

We operate without a corporate structure. No boss, no managers, no bullshit. Weve replaced hierarchy with cooperation, accountability, and responsibility of our individual members. New ideas arent generated by specialists in air-conditioned offices, but in open meetingswhere ideas are discussed freely and a course of action is decided democratically by everyone directly affected by the decision. How many sick days can we take? Should we carry the new South End Press book? What out-of-print anarchist classic should we make available again? Who will table at the New Orleans Bookfair? How can we increase the diversity of our collective and publishing list? We answer questions like this every daydozens a week, hundreds a month. Sound tedious? Sound empowering? Sound exciting? Its all thatand more. Its our way of developing the skills necessary to administer our own work lives. Its our way of creating the better world we carry in our hearts, and trying to live it in some small way while carrying on the legacy of those revolutionaries who came before us. Yes, we are continually battling the constraints of a market economy, but were also learning the pathway to autonomy, while challenging some of the most basic structures of capitalism. Freedom is a constant struggle. While each of us has our own definition of anarchism, they overlap in enough ways to maintain our common project. At the same time, we understand that the anarchist movement is made up of many historical and contemporary strands, whether they call themselves anarchist, or socialist, or refuse labels altogether. We dont have a problem spreading the ideas of people with whom we dont always see eye-to-eye. No idea is so infallible that it cant be examined, questioned, and debated. Humans have self-organized since the dawn of recorded time, in varying ways, with varied results. We strive to abolish the systems that control and separate us, and try to draw important lessons from these struggles so that we can all move forward together. A key component of our struggle is the sharing of knowledge, history, and information. Through our publishing and distribution efforts, we see ourselves as part of a long tradition of getting the word out by any means necessary. In many historical periods, books, pamphlets, and other forms of written communication were clandestine, relying on networks of individuals keeping revolutionary ideas alive with secret printing presses, tattered facsimiles, and underground distribution systems. Our mission is to keep circulating these important texts, while producing new analyses and documenting the history of our struggle as it unfolds. Were proud to call ourselves propagandists and hope that the materials we provide both agitate and provoke. The AK Press Collective
Isnt an anarchist business an oxymoron?

Theres definitely something strange and contradictory about the concept of an anarchist business. AK Press works hard to destroy and move beyond capitalism, toward a non-exploitative, sustainable, and just economy. However, like it or not, capitalism is the only game in town at the moment. The paper that books are printed on, the building we work in, the packages we send and receive, the computers we useall are the result of the exploited labor of the working class. Until we take power away from private economic tyrannies like corporations and investment groups, until were in control of our creative energies, almost every good or service we use or provide is administered by capitalism. AK Press doesnt exist to enrich its members at the expense of consumers. Were here to provide much needed tools for intellectual selfdefense. When we call ourselves an anarchist business its with the full knowledge that the economy is not in our hands. Yet.

Stay Solid!
A Radical Handbook for Youth

Edited by Matt Hern
I wish this book had been written when I was in high school, and that Id somehow gotten my hands on it. The world needs so much from us right now, but more than anything, it needs the recognition that we, each of us, all of us, have the power to change our surroundings for the better. Stay Solid! is a celebration of the limitless possibilities in our everyday world. Dave Oswald Mitchell, co-editor of Beautiful Trouble: A Toolbox for Revolution This collection of essays, excerpts, explanations, and images pushes back against a culture that relentlessly demands that kids give up their ideals, abandon their hopes, soothe their rage, and accept their fates. From dealing with the cops to dealing with your peers, from school and community to drugs and sex, from race and class to money and mental health, Stay Solid! provides essential support for radically inclined teens who believe that its possible for all of us to hang on to our values and build a life we believe in. Compiled and edited by radical urbanist and educator Matt Hern, with the assistance of the youth community at Vancouvers Purple Thistle Centre, Stay Solid! is for kids everywhere, and for anyone who considers themselves an allyparents, teachers, neighbors, friends, relatives, and beyond.
Contributors include Shira Tarrant, Dawn Paley, Michelle Alexander, Mike Davis, the Guerrilla Girls, Ward Churchill, Harsha Walia, Sunaura Taylor, Gustavo Esteva, Gord Hill, Geoff Mann, Alexis Pauline Gumbs, CrimethInc, and many, many more.

Disassembly Required
Geoff Mann
A Field Guide to Actually Existing Capitalism

An essential handbook for understanding actually existing capitalism, and thus the world as it really israther than as it is theorized and justified by the dissembling high priests of mainstream academia, policy, and politics.Christian Parenti, author of Tropic of Chaos Capitalism is a complex, dynamic, and extraordinarily robust way of organizing human life; it is also a system that promises prosperity for all, while depleting the commons in the interests of a few. We know that capitalism is a broken system, in desperate need of change. To imagine how we might change it, we need to understand it, and to succeed in changing it, we need to be able to explain to others how it works and why we need change. Disassembly Required is an attempt to meet these challenges. It offers an anti-capitalist analysis of capitalism, and, even more importantly, it explains why it is anti-capitalist. From money and markets to the subprime crisis, this book explains the fundamental features of contemporary capitalism and how they contribute, sometimes in surprising ways, to overall capitalist dynamics.
Geoff Mann teaches political economy and economic geography at Simon Fraser University, where he directs the Centre for Global Political Economy.

Sewing Freedom
Jared Davidson
Philip Josephs, Transnationalism & Early New Zealand Anarchism

A ground breaking tale of a rebel life, skillfully unearthed by Jared Davidson. A must read.Lucien van der Walt, co-author of Black Flame Sewing Freedom is the first in-depth study of anarchism in New Zealand during the turbulent years of the early-20th centurya time of wildcat strikes, industrial warfare, and a radical working class counter-culture. Interweaving biography, cultural history, and an array of archival sources, this engaging account unravels the anarchist-cum-bomber stereotype by piecing together the life of Philip Josephsa Latvian-born Jewish tailor, antimilitarist, and founder of the Wellington Freedom Group. Anarchists like Josephs not only existed in the Workingmans Paradise that was New Zealand, but were a lively part of its labor movement and the class struggle that swept through the country, imparting uncredited influence and ideas. Sewing Freedom places this neglected movement within the global anarchist upsurge, and unearths the colourful activities of New Zealands most radical advocates for social and economic change. Includes illustrations by Icky from Justseeds and a foreword by Barry Pateman.
Jared Davidson is an independent historian, a member of the Labour History Project and Kapito Books Workers Co-operative. His first book, Remains to be Seen: Tracing Joe Hills Ashes in New Zealand, was published in 2011.
Anarchism and Workers Self-Management in Revolutionary Spain

Frank Mintz
This is the first English translation of Frank Mintzs seminal study of the economic experiments put into place during the Spanish Revolution to both sustain civil society during the war and, more importantly, act as the material basis for a new society. These plans werent developed by professional economists but grew out of a political movement that put working people at the fore and believed that the collectivized workplace would be the cornerstone of economic life. Includes a prologue by Chris Ealham, author of Anarchism and the City.
A retired professor of Spanish, Frank Mintz lives in Paris, France, and is active with the CNT labor union.

The Value of Radical Theory
Wayne Price
An Anarchist Introduction to Marxs Critique of Political Economy

The Value of Radical Theory achieves two main goals: It explains Marxs economic theory and provides readers with a solid foundation in his critique of capitalism. Wayne Prices political insights also offer a framework through which anarchists can understand and use Marx, while remaining anarchists. The result is an insightful primer that sidesteps the typical anarchist vs. Marxist debates. Price presents Marxs theory as an as-yet-unsurpassed explanation of contemporary capitalism, one that will aid in the task of overcoming the market and ushering in an era of collective, participatory control of the economy, inspired by anarchist political and ethical traditions.
Wayne Price is a long-time writer, theorist, and activist on the Left. He has been involved in a series of revolutionary libertarian-socialist organizations and has been active in dissident caucuses in teacher unions, human rights organizing, and the antiwar movement, from the Vietnam war to today. Prices adherence to class-struggle anarchism has been complimented by a deep appreciation for Marxs critique of capitalism. He is the author of The Abolition of the State: Anarchist & Marxist Perspectives (2007) and Anarchism & Socialism: Reformism or Revolution? (2010).

Take Back the Land

Max Rameau
Land, Gentrification & the Umoja Village Shantytown

For people seeking sharp analysis of our current political era, Take Back the Land is the most important book you could read. It lays out in detail the successes and challenges, the victories and betrayals, of an absolutely critical campaign for housing justice. Max Rameau is a visionary, and his words and actions have inspired a movement. His work has created a new framework for struggle. If you want to know a way forward in the current economic and political crisis we are in, read this book. Jordan Flaherty, author of Floodlines In October 2006, a group of housing activists called Take Back the Land seized control of a plot of public land in Miami, Florida and built an encampment that would become known as the Umoja Village Shantytown, a public protest against gentrification. Though the Umoja Village encampment lasted only a few short months, it inspired activists and observers around the country, shifting the conversation, re-politicizing the act of squatting, and helping to catalyze a new movement against the foreclosure crisis. Addressing the issues of land, selfdetermination, and homelessness in the Black community, Max Rameau explains the birth and development of Umoja Village day by day, and outlines the larger strategy behind Take Back the Land.
Max Rameau is a Haitian-born Pan-African theorist, campaign strategist, organizer, and author currently based in Washington, DC. In 2006, he founded Miamis Take Back the Land, which has since grown into a vital international poor peoples movement with strong links to economic justice struggles in the United States and around the globe.

Queering Anarchism
Addressing and Undressing Power and Desire
Edited by C.B. Daring, J. Rogue, Deric Shannon & Abbey Volcano

The divide is growing between the pro-military, pro-police, marriage-seeking gay and lesbian rights politics we see in the headlines every day and the grassroots racial and economic-justice-centered queer and trans resistance that fights to end prisons, borders, war, and poverty. Queering Anarchism a vital contribution in this moment, providing analysis and strategies for building the queer and trans politics we want and need. Dean Spade, author of Normal Life What does it mean to queer the world around us? How does the radical refusal of the mainstream codification of GLBT identity as a new gender norm come into focus in the context of anarchist theory and practice? How do our notions of orientation inform our politicsand vice versa? Queering Anarchism brings together a diverse set of writings, ranging from the deeply theoretical to the playfully personal, that explores the possibilities of the concept of queering, turning the dominant, and largely heteronormative, structures of belief and identity entirely inside out. Ranging in topic from the economy to disability, politics, social structures, sexual practice, interpersonal relationships, and beyond, the authors here suggest that queering might be more than a set of personal preferencespointing toward the possibility of an entirely new way of viewing the world. With a foreword by Martha Ackelsberg.
Quiet Rumours
An Anarcha-Feminist Reader
Edited by the Dark Star Collective
This is a fascinating window into the development of the womens movement in the words of those who moved it.

An ideal overview for budding feminists and an exciting reconsideration for seasoned radicals.
The Dark Star Collective was a UK-based anarchist group dedicated to keeping small anarchist-oriented pamphlets and publications available from your local bookshop. They are perhaps most well known for their two anthologies, Quiet Rumours and Beneath the Paving Stones: Situationists and the Beach (also published by AK Press).

Nine-Tenths of the Law
Hannah Dobbz
Property and Resistance in the United States

A brilliant history of squatting in the USA.Mike Davis, author of Planet of Slums How does property fit into designs for an equitable society? Nine-Tenths of the Law examines the history of squatting and property struggles in the US, from colonialism to 20th-century urban squatting and the foreclosure crisis of the late 2000s, and how such resistance movements shape the law. Squatting is defined by Dobbz as occupying an otherwise abandoned structure without exchanging money or engaging in a formal permissive agreement. Stories from our most hard-hit cities show that property is truly in crisis. One in five homes in Buffalo, NY are abandoned. Our national housing vacancy rate is 14 percent. If we gave a house to every homeless person in the United States, two-thirds of that stock would remain empty. In May 2011, 1 in every 103 homes in Nevada was in foreclosure. Nine-Tenths of the Law expands our understanding of property law and highlights recent tactics like squatting and the use of adverse possession to claim title to vacant homes. Hannah Dobbz unveils the tangled relationship Americans have always had in creating and sustaining healthy communities.
Hannah Dobbz is a writer, editor, filmmaker, and former squatter. In 2007, she produced Shelter, a film about squatters in the Bay Area. Nine-Tenths of the Law is her first book.

We Are Many
Reflections on Movement Strategy from Occupation to Liberation

Edited by Kate Khatib, Margaret Killjoy & Mike McGuire
We Are Many has helped me to understand [Occupys] value as a manifestation of this radical vision: community microcosms with not one vision but many, impossible to achieve through simple government action, grounded in the need for tough conversations and revolutionary paradigm shifts. Avory Faucette, Radically Queer We have all been swept up by the momentum of the Occupy movement. We have seen the results of years of organizing in different communities come together in ways that few could have imagined, bolstered by the scores of people who have left the comfort of their daily routine behind and taken to the streets. Yet as a movement so overflowing with new social and political actors, we lack the framework we need to help us all to understand what a social movement is, to understand how change has happened in the past, to understand what this moment means and what this movement makes possible. We Are Many is a reflection on Occupy from within the heart of the movement itself. Examining key questionswhat worked? what didnt? why? how? is it reproducible?the authors and activists in this collection point toward a movement-based framework for future organizing. Heavily illustrated and annotated, We Are Many is a celebration of what worked, and a thoughtful analysis of what didnt.
Territories in Resistance
Ral Zibechi
A Cartography of Latin American Social Movements

Zibechi shows us not only that new worlds are possible but they exist and are constantly being invented in daily struggles throughout Latin America. A brilliantly original reformulation of the practices of popular action by a sophisticated, realistic, experienced, and daring observer of autonomous non-state spaces. More valuable than a six-foot shelf of tomes on social movement theory. Its an education in itself.James C. Scott, author of The Art of Not Being Governed and Seeing Like a State Emancipation, argues Ral Zibechi, is not an objective but a way of life. For the last half century, new and emancipatory social formations have worked to carve out their own territories in Latin America, experimenting in rural and urban settings with new forms of liberatory politics that challenge neocolonialism, neoliberalism, and the very basis of the state itself. Not limited to a single path, these societies in movement have adopted forms of communitarian relations that allow experimentation and innovation to flourish at a riveting pace. Blending case studies and history with social theory and analysis, Zibechi opens our eyes to the new world being born just outside our gaze. With a foreword by Dawn Paley, and an epilogue that brings Zibechi into conversation with Michael Hardt and Alvaro Reyes on the continuing revolution of everyday life in Latin America.
Ral Zibechi is one of Latin Americas leading political theorists, and is an international analyst for Brecha (Montevideo, Uruguay), professor at the Multiversidad Franciscana de Amrica Latina, and author of Dispersing Power: Social Movements as Anti-State Forces.

Truth and Revolution
Michael Staudenmaier
A History of the Sojourner Truth Organization, 19691986

The author presents the group with all its foibles, it many frustrations and its ultimate failures, without ever letting us forget that what he admires about this group was its attempt to develop socialist theory while also being deeply committed to organizing and struggle.Dan La Botz, author of Cesar Chavaz and La Causa In the 1970s and 1980s, as the movements of the sixties receded from view, the revolutionary left in the United States went through a series of profound political, demographic, and cultural transformations as it struggled to find its footing in a rapidly changing world. The unorthodox political agenda of the Sojourner Truth Organization represents a small but powerfully resonant thread running through this arc of history. Drawing on detailed archival research and oral interviews, Truth and Revolution skillfully combines social and intellectual history approaches to shed light on both the theory and the practice of STO. In all the major arenas of its workfactory organizing, anti-imperialist solidarity, anti-nuclear and anti-fascist struggles, among many othersSTO combined a strategic assessment of the urgent tasks facing an activist left with a theoretical sophistication that merits sustained attention. Historian Michael Staudenmaier also includes a final chapter linking the legacy of STO directly to the challenges facing 21st-century radicals.
Michael Staudenmaier is a veteran of anarchist, anti-imperialist, and anti-fascist movements, and is now a doctoral candidate in history at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
The Peoples Pension

Eric Laursen
The Struggle to Defend Social Security Since Reagan

There is great deal in The Peoples Pension to interest both the general reader and the social security expert. the chapters on Scary Numbers, Propaganda and Politicization, and The Retirement Crisis should be required reading for every American. Ken Buffin, Buffin Partners A powerful, well-funded movement to phase out Social Security or even privatize it has been gathering strength since the election of Ronald Reagan. Each time it comes close to succeeding, its beaten back by a coalition of labor, grassroots organizers, and the elderly. Meanwhile, Social Security has only become more vital to retirees and their families as the federal and state governments slash other benefits and servicesa trend thats grown ever more troubling in recent years. The Peoples Pension is both groundbreaking history and an eye-opening guide for anyone concerned about one of the biggest issues of our times. With 95 percent of Americans participating in the program either as beneficiaries or through their payroll tax contributions, Social Security is quite literally the glue that binds Americans together as a community. In a provocative epilogue, Laursen argues to democratize, not disable, the program, suggesting that the only solution for Social Security may be to de-link it from government altogether.
Eric Laursen is an independent financial and political journalist, activist, and commentator. He is co-author, with Seth Tobocman, of Understanding the Crash. His work has appeared in a wide variety of publications. He lives in Buckland, Massachusetts.

Arab Spring, Libyan Winter
Vijay Prashad
Despite the (probably) millions of words written about the Libyan uprising and the NATO intervention, nothing written in English has come near the truth. After reading Arab Spring, Libyan Winter, it seems that when all is said and done, Prashads work will come the closest.Ron Jacobs, CounterPunch The Arab Spring captivated the planet. Mass action overthrew Tunisias Ben Ali and Egypts Hosni Mubarak. The revolutionary wave spread to the far corners of the Arab world, from Morocco to Bahrain. It seemed as if all the authoritarian states would finally be freed, even those of the Arabian Peninsula. Peoples power had produced this wave, and continued to ride it out. In Libya, though, the new world order had different ideas. Social forces opposed to Muammar Qaddafi had begun to rebel, but they were weak. In came France and the United States, with promises of glory. A deal followed with the Saudis, who then sent in their own forces to cut down the Bahraini revolution, and NATO began its assault, ushering in a Libyan Winter that cast its shadow over the Arab Spring. This brief, timely analysis situates the assault on Libya in the context of the winds of revolt that swept through the Middle East in the Spring of 2011.
Vijay Prashad is the George and Martha Kellner Chair of South Asian History, and professor and director of international studies at Trinity College in Hartford, Connecticut. He is the author or editor of over a dozen books, including The Darker Nations: A Peoples History of the Third World.
Hopeless
Barack Obama and the Politics of Illusion

Edited by Jeffrey St. Clair & Joshua Frank
Those who feel that like lemmings they are being led over a cliff would be well-advised not to read this book. They may discover that they are right.Noam Chomsky The election of Barack Obama sparked long-dormant tingles of optimism in even the most entrenched political cynics. But the promise of an Obama revolution fizzled out even before his inauguration, as the president-in-waiting stocked his cabinet with corporate hacks, cut secret deals with Wall Street titans and plotted a bloody escalation of the senseless war in Afghanistan. Here is a scathing indictment of the Obama presidency from the best writers on the American Left. Hopeless is a view of Obamas policies from the trenches: the compromises, the backstabbing, the same old imperial ambitions. From Obamas sell-outs to big oil and the nuclear industry to his continuation of savage Bush-era policies in the CIAs global network of secret prisons, this fast-paced chronicle will outrage the politically naive, delight the critical and inspire those looking for an alternative to the dismal politics of lesser evilism. As Emma Goldman famously quipped, If voting changed anything, theyd make it illegal. Let this book stand as a painful reminder to those who think anything less than social struggle will net tangible gain.
Contributors include: Kevin Alexander Gray, Jeremy Scahill, Joe Bageant, Marjorie Cohn, Brian Tokar, Linn Washington, Jr., Ronnie Cummins, Kathy Kelly, Tariq Ali, Ralph Nader, and more.

In the Shadow of the Sabertooth: A Renegade Naturalist Considers Global Warming, the First Americans and the Terrible Beasts of the Pleistocene
Doug Peacock
Our climate is changing fast. The future is uncertain, probably fiery, and likely terrifying. Yet shifting weather patterns have threatened humans before, right here in North America, when people first colonized this continent. In this brand new landscape, humans managed to adapt to unfamiliar habitats and dangerous creatures in the midst of a wildly fluctuating climate. What was it like to live with huge pack-hunting lions, saber-toothed cats, dire wolves, and gigantic short-faced bears, to hunt now extinct horses, camels, and mammoth? Are there lessons for modern people lingering along this ancient trail? Doug Peacocks latest narrative explores the full circle of climate change, from the death of the megafauna to the depletion of the ozone.

Edited by Kristian Williams, William Munger & Lara Messersmith-Glavin

In Life During Wartime, fifteen authors and activists reflect on the American domestic security apparatus.

One Game at a Time: Why Sports Matter

Matt Hern
What do we gain by handing over the persuasive power of sports to the worst elements of our culture, by allowing sports to become plagued by hyper-consumption, militarism, violence, sexism, and homophobia? According to Matt Hern, not a whole lot. In a series of interconnected narratives from his forty-plus years of sports fanaticism, Hern makes an impassioned and entertaining plea for a more active engagement with sports, physically and intellectually. Herns eye is critical and his analysis sharp, but this book is more than a critiqueits a celebration of what sports have taught us, and a suggestion of how much more we still have to learn.

ANARCHISM
Alexander Berkman
Reformers, Socialists and Communists Berkman points out the laws of so-called reformists, the danger of relying on progressive politicians, the weakening of the labor movement, the corruption of socialist groups by a biased political system, and the moral decay and slide toward totalitarianism of the Bolshevik movement in Russiaand all this in 1929! Backing up his statements with sound reasoning, Berkman offers the reader a rational, sober, but uncompromising view of the politics and economics of our daily struggles.

his home country, and throughout Europe. But this mild-mannered anarchist is all too often remembered only for some of the curious episodes in his life (his participation in the Benevento uprising, his gift of La Baronata to Bakunin and anarchist revolutionaries), rather than for his ideas and the enormous influence he had on the early socialist movement in Italy.

Anarchy in the Age of Dinosaurs
News of the Spanish Revolution Members of the IWW have always followed international struggles with great interest. In 1936, when the Spanish Revolution began, they were inspired by the part played by the anarchist-led Spanish labor union confederation, the CNT, and the endeavor to create a selfgoverning egalitarian society. In the IWW press people like Joseph Wagner wrote and translated articles about the Spanish situation, offering alternative perspectives not available in either the Communist or liberal press.

Anarchy in the Age of Dinosaurs lays out a new understanding of political anarchy, one that aims to replace the mass movement with a scrappy multitude of mutineers, mad scientists, sprawling shanties, and thieves in the night. The first edition went out of print in 2009 when the US government stole every remaining copy and all the digital backups with a sealed warrant. Authorship of the book was used in the governments statements to the media about why the mysterious raid was performed. But look, now its back!

The Wage System & Law and Government Alexander Berkman knew his audience. His easy-tounderstand style was aimed directly at the working people who would benefit most from a world without hierarchy. In just two chapters (also available in our What is Anarchism?), Berkman is able to fully explore the systemic problems between wage earner and boss, as well as explain the relationship between law, government, and the exploitation of the working class.

The Intersections of Anarchism and Community Organising Historically, says Dave, revolutionary movements have been guided by revolutionary strategy and tactics. A successful dualpower movement does not spontaneously arise; it needs consistent organising within an anarchistcommunity framework. After being an activist for years I decided to become a community organizer and with that experience I gained new insights in revolutionary strategy: Anarchists can learn a lot from community organising models in radicalising neighbourhoods and families.

Engines of Domination: Political Power and the Human Emergency Political powerarmed central authority, with states and war is it really necessary for human society? Or is it a tool that ruling elites use to live at the expense of society? Applying his theory of political power to Western history, Corske makes a passionate argument that there is only one way to save the future . Armed central authority must be abolished, giving way to a world of peaceful voluntary communitiesin other words, an argument for anarchism.

$26.95 hb Belknap/Harvard University Press 9780674050563
Beyond the Affinity Group This collection of three articles examines the hows and whys of anarchist organization. The first is a look at the success and limits of the network form of organization and why it came to the fore in the current period. The second article looks at the organizational practice of the first anarchists, and in particular Bakunin. The final article asks why anarchist organizations mostly failed to grow following the collapse of the left, and identifies why large-scale anarchist organizations are essential if we are to ever overthrow capitalism.
Joo Freire
In 1892, unrepentant anarchists Alexander Berkman, Henry Bauer, and Carl Nold were sent to the Western Pennsylvania State Penitentiary for the attempted assassination of steel tycoon Henry Clay Frick. Searching for a way to continue their radical politics and to proselytize among their fellow inmates, these men circulated messages of hope and engagement via primitive means and sympathetic prisoners. On odd bits of paper, in German and in English, they shared their thoughts and feelings in a handwritten clandestine magazine called Prison Blossoms.

that anarchists need to be addressing. While they are by no means the only relevant issues, the fact that some anarchists spend so much time on intellectual masturbation instead of tackling these concrete problems of liberation is symptomatic of their distance from real grassroots struggle.

From Reform to Revolution This work by Ian Martin takes on the dichotomy between reform and revolution, and makes a case for certain contexts of anarchists working within so-called reform movements: when one can be a conduit to revolutionary change.

Syndicalism: Its Theory and Practice As Emma Goldman said: syndicalism was not invented by the writings of intellectuals, it was born from the actual struggle and experience of the workers themselves. Likewise, a resurrection of revolutionary syndicalism will not come about by preaching to the workers the theses and theories of the past, the new syndicalism will arise out of the need to repel the increasing attacks of neoliberal capitalism.

Getting Free: Creating an Association of Democratic Autonomous Neighborhoods Getting Free is a study of anarchist revolutionary strategy. The main purpose of this book is to try to persuade revolutionaries to shift the sites of the anticapitalist struggle and to select new battlefields. I identify three strategic sites for fightingneighborhoods, workplaces, and householdsthat I believe will not only enable us to defeat capitalists but also to build a new society in the process. Strategies like strikes, civil disobedience, or insurrections are not wrong in themselves, but they are not enough, and by themselves cannot defeat capitalists. To win we must add another whole dimension.

Siberian Makhnovshchina The Russian Civil War in Asiatic Russia was like the American Wild West, as one regime after another tried to establish its rule over the freedom-loving peasants and miners of the West Siberian plains and mountains. A key role in this struggle was played by the partisan armies put together by anarchists, which fought first against the Whites, then against the Reds. The Siberian anarchists aimed to establish free federations of rural communes and worker-managed industrial enterprises. Long ignored or stigmatized as bandits by Soviet historians and their nationalist successors, the Siberian anarchist-partisans are rescued from oblivion in this pioneering study.

Fields, Factories and Workshops While Kropotkins view of our future might have once been regarded as a utopian dream, today, as a result of the growing realization that the worlds resources of energy and raw materials are finite, that food is our most precious commodity, and that most peoples working lives are futile and stultifying, the lessons of this book, for both the rich world and the poor, are topical and hopeful. It would not be an exaggeration to describe this book as the central work of Kropotkins writing career!!

Refusing to Wait: Anarchism & Intersectionality Anarchism can learn a lot from the feminist movement. In many respects, it already has. Anarcha-feminists have developed analyses of patriarchy that link it to the state form. We have learned that the personal is political. We have learned that no revolutionary project can be complete while men systematically dominate and exploit women; that socialism is a rather empty goal even if it is statelessif mens domination of women is left intact.

The Making of the Indebted Man: An Essay on the Neoliberal Condition Debt has become a major concern of economic and political leaders.

Through a reading of Marxs lesser-known youthful writings on John Mill, and a rereading of writings by Nietzsche, Deleuze, Guattari, and Foucault, the author demonstrates that debt is above all a political construction, and that the creditor/debtor relation is the fundamental social relation of Western societies.

Zora Neale Hurston is great. This is highly recommended!

Exodus And Reconstruction: Working-Class Women at the Heart of Globalization Traditional rural patriarchy based on family farming is finally, steadily, decisively, being crushed by global capital. New capitalism is here, bringing with it new politics. At the most fundamental level, this politics is not about oil. Its not about religion. Its not about imperialist men versus anti-imperialist men. Its about women and womens labor: women at the heart of a transformed global proletariat.

Queer Liberation is Class Struggle That the issue of gay marriage has dominated and overshadowed other important discussions that should be had among queer radicals shows that there has been a lack of strategy and vision of queer liberation that integrates anti-racist, anti-patriarchy, class struggle, and anti-ableist perspectives. While academics have churned out thousands of books on queer theory, spinning our heads dizzy with abstract lingo, those of us on the ground have not similarly churned out our own theory and practice of queer struggles.

Citing vivid examples, including numerous treatments and rest cures perpetrated on women through the decades, the authors analyze the biomedical rationale used to justify the wholesale sex discrimination throughout our culture. Ever since Hippocrates, male medics have treated women as the weaker sex. Complaints and Disorders reveals this history and asserts the need for a new substance and style of medical practice as it relates to women.
Silvia Federici
Sex, Race, and Class: The Perspective of Winning, A Selection of Writings 1952 2011 In 1972 Selma James set out a new political perspective. Her starting point was the millions of unwaged women who, working in the home and on the land, were not seen as workers and their struggles viewed as outside of the class struggle. For James, the class struggle presents itself as the conflict between the reproduction and survival of the human race, and the domination of the market with its exploitation, wars, and ecological devastation.

In the Seventies: Adventures in the Counterculture In The Seventies tells the story of London and New York during the decade that is often written off as one long hangover after the exuberance of the sixties. Miles remembers a fascinating period in which many of the hippie dreams became realities, and others came back in shiny new clothes at the advent of the punk revolution. Writing for NME, Miles reported on both the CBGBs scene and was the first to review and interview The Clash, The Ramones, Talking Heads, and Patti Smith.

Witness to the German Revolution In 1923 the fledgling Comintern dispatched Victor Serge, with his peerless journalistic skills, to Berlin to expedite the German Revolution and write these moving reports from the battlefront. Originally a participant in the anarchist movement (yay!), Victor Serge became a committed bolshevik (doh!) upon arrival in Russia in 1919 and lent his considerable talents to the cause of spreading the revolution across Europe. An eloquent critic of tyranny no matter its form, Serge was a leading member of the Left Opposition in its struggle against Stalin, a cause that ultimately resulted in his exile from Russia.

Barbara Almond
The Monster Within: The Hidden Side of Motherhood

Mixed feelings about motherhood are not just hard to discuss, they are a powerful social taboo. Here, Barbara Almond brings this troubling issue to light. She uncovers the roots of ambivalence, tells how it manifests in lives of women and their children, and describes a spectrum of maternal behavior. In a society where perfection in parenting is the unattainable ideal, this compassionate book also shows how women can affect positive change in their lives.

When the G-20 met in Toronto in 2010 behind armed thugs and fortress walls to discuss the fate of the world, Kelly was among those who took to the streets to counter it with the militancy that the situation demanded. The cops dragged her off and tormented her in jail for a month while the government attempted to frame her as the leader of the infamously leaderless Black Bloc. Many of her charges were dropped, but she was sentenced to fifteen months behind bars for daring to be free, for writing her poetry with action and words alike.

Her writing examines the animate qualities of seemingly inanimate things and explores personal relationships, collective and individual human experiences, as they are distilled through our encounters with such things as the CBC, chain bookstores, the contents of a kitchen, or the expanse of a whole city.

Against Equality: Prisons Will Not Protect You Prisons Will Not Protect You, the newest in the Against Equality series, takes a critical stance against the prison industrial complex and the systems of inequality and violence perpetuated by hate crime legislation. It introduces the history of this legislative solution and interrogates the gay communitys unquestioned loyalty to the prison industrial complex. It argues that hate-crime legislation does not address actual causes of harm and violence and only funnels massive numbers of people into the profit-driven prison system.

Beneath the surface of nostalgia of Major League Baseball, the most powerful baseball organization in the world, lurks a different history. It is one of upholding Jim Crow racial segregation for nearly fifty years, and when the color barrier was finally broken, MLB destroyed one of the largest Black institutions in the United States, the Negro Leagues. In addition, MLB has held a colonial attitude to any foreign baseball institutions and has worked to subvert, control, and subordinate baseball leagues outside the United States and Canada for its own interests.

Infrastructure Critical: Sacrifice at Torontos G8/G20 Summit Much public debate ensued after the violence and police brutality that gripped Toronto in June 2010 during the G8/ G20 Summit. It is now being revealed how the Conservative governments stimulus package was funneled into infrastructure projects aimed at policing Canadians who wished to protest the summit. Infrastructure Critical reveals more than the thin line between security and massive infringement on civil rights; it argues that progressive responses need to understand the logic of state governance in a global economic context.

From Biopolitics to Necropolitics: The Metastasis of Democracy, Communications and the Mass Intellect This book explores the implications of neo-liberal capitalism for the fields of culture, art, and life throughout the planet, as well as in the Eastern European transitional states. These fields are presented not as autonomous cultural, artistic, and social practices, but as practices strongly implicated in contemporary capitalist neoliberal democracy. Examining the current mechanisms of performative politics, and further developing a line of recent social theory tracing from Foucault to Negri and others, the authors expose a number of totalitarian practices hidden behind global capital.

Always great, this one includes pre-dad thoughts, pieces on navigating the cultural continuum, parenting and radical engagement, sex positive parenting, Tomass Letter to Teenagers and his daughter Zoras Letter to Adults, and more. Always recommended.

new from ak distro Mail Order Information

Thanks for ordering!! Heres some information weve compiled to make this as smooth and unsurprising as possible. Of course, feel free to get in touch if you have any questions. It is vital that you put your name and address on each order. We dont care what name you use when you order (and appreciate the nom du plume!), but it would make our lives easier if you either use the same name on each order or note previously used names. Most orders go out in a day or two, but occasional delays of up to a week occur. There are also occasions when delays occur due to titles being out of stock. Your patience is appreciated. We prefer that you use the order form on the opposite page. Please cut it out or copy it. If you run out of space, complete your order on a piece of paper, and attach it to the order form. On the order form, please list the title, author, price, and shipping costs (see below) and the total. Friends of AK Press (see Page 1) give yourselves a 50% discount on AK titles and 20% on the others! California residents add 9% sales tax to the pre-shipping total, Maryland residents add 6%. Those with web access can order from our secure web site (well do the math!) using a credit card, or alternatively, can print a copy of the order from the site and mail it in with payment. Customers ordering by fax, email, or phone may only pay by credit card.
If you send a payment by mail, please list alternatives (if you are easy in that regard), as titles you choose may be temporarily unavailable. If alternatives are not listed, we will credit your account and will send the books as soon as we have them back in stock.

For those ordering by credit card, we require your credit card number, expiration date, name as it appears on the card, shipping address, as well as (and this is very important) your accurate billing address (if its different from your shipping). We will also accept payment in cash, but this is sent at your own risk. INTERNATIONAL ORDERINGPLEASE NOTE: Overseas customers are advised to pay by money order in US funds, or by credit card. For checks drawn in currencies other than US dollars, an additional charge will be added to cover our banks extortionate charges. If this is your only method of payment, get in touch and well tell you how much you must add to your check to cover these charges. PRISONERS PLEASE NOTE: Please be aware that different prisons have different regulations about what items you can order. You are responsible to know those regulations and order accordingly. If items you order are rejected by the prison and returned to us, we will issue a credit memo for your purchase. However, if the prison does not return the order, we cannot issue a credit. Unfortunately, you order at your own risk. While we cannot afford to send free books to prisoners, we do offer a 30% discount on all items shipped directly to prisoners (ordered by you or your people outside).
