Sinopsis

Anarchism is commonly viewed as an outdated and wholly impractical idea. Worse, it has an accursed reputation for advocating chaos, violence, and destruction. The aim of An AnarchistâÇÖs Manifesto is to convince readers of the exact opposite: thatáanarchism is the most adaptive, humane, intelligent, singly inclusive proposal that we, as social animals, have ever envisioned.áIn the bracing tradition of theámanifesto,áGlenn Wallis 'makes public' the values informing the anarchist way of life-order, equality, mutual support, and a vitalizing rejection ofáauthoritarianism, oppression, and exploitation. Offering examples of anarchism in action that are sure to surprise, this startling bookáinspires even the most skeptical readers to experiment with these values in practical ways.áAlong the way, it offers a succinct account of anarchismâÇÖs historical blights of violence and quixotic utopianism.An AnarchistâÇÖs Manifesto cogently promotes and presents a transformative approach to living in harmony with others.Glenn Wallis is an independent scholar and founder of Incite Seminars in Philadelphia. He has taught at several universities, including Brown University and the University of Georgia. His most recent books include A Critique of Western Buddhism and How to Fix Education. Wallis blogs at Speculative Non-Buddhism. He holds a Ph.D. in Buddhist studies from Harvard University.
