The first English-language evaluation of the French anarchist movement between World War One and World War Two. Using an impressive array of archival sources and personal interviews, Berry’s original research explores the debates and growing pains of a large, working class movement facing great obstacles. Focusing on the organised wings of the movement - the syndicalist and anarcho-communist group - it offers a ringside seat to the legacy of the First International, the Russian Revolution and the subsequent Bolshevik treachery, as well as the fight against fascism.
