Catégories : ESPAGNE:Histoire:1936-1939 ; ÉTHIQUE ; NATIONALISME ; PATRIOTISME ; PHILOSOPHIE ; SOCIALISME Résumé : "Old debates about democracy vs. socialism vs. fascism are back. Missing from today’s versions are the voices of moral clarity, those that challenge us to be our best selves in difficult times. Kristian Williams has mined the intellect of a man who, sixty-seven years after his death, still has much to offer readers. Between the Bullet and the Lie highlights the relationship George Orwell saw between aesthetics, ethics, and politics; the difference between honesty and integrity; the corruption of language; the importance of observation and evidence; and the many failures of the Left. The result is not a study of sacred decrees from Orwell, but an application of his thought to political and literary questions that trouble us today." [4e de couv.]

Le groupe anarchiste "Friends of Aron Baron" a compilé dans cet ouvrage des textes et essais anarchistes écrits entre 1922 et 2017.
Langues : Anglais (eng)
Catégories : ANTHOLOGIE ; AUTORITÉ ; BUREAUCRATIE ; COMMUNISME ; CRONSTADT ; PRISON ; RÉPRESSION ; RÉVOLUTION ; URSS:Histoire Résumé : "On the centenary of the 1917 Russian Revolution, paeans to the conquering Bolsheviks will be sung. But why? Why do so many Marxists and “leftists” still identify with the totalitarian and bureaucratic monster built on the backs and graves of the Russian working class? Could “victory” have been worth the price? The seeds of the Bolshevik dictatorship were sprouting in 1917 and the harvest still haunts us today.
Bloodstained doesn’t only force us to reckon with the past but it demands we think more carefully about freedom, social change, and what we mean when we advocate a new society. The defense of history's obscene Leninist enterprises, once categorized as “actually existing socialism,” ends here. No more velvet-gloved hagiography. No more Lenins." [4e de couv.]

Catégories : ETATS-UNIS D'AMÉRIQUE:Histoire:1999 -> ; FASCISME ET ANTIFASCISME ; RACISME ET ANTIRACISME Résumé : "We can no longer ignore the fact that fascism is on the rise in the United States. What was once a fringe movement has been gaining cultural acceptance and political power for years. Rebranding itself as “alt-right” and riding the waves of both Donald Trump’s hate-fueled populism and the anxiety of an abandoned working class, fascists have sought to mainstream their views while inspiring racist street violence. They must be stopped.
Antifascism today is more than a struggle against this or that fascist barbarity. It is a movement for equality. Yes, black-masked Antifa militants are part of this struggle, but Burley focuses his attention on the popular, broad-based antifascist practices that have historically proven effective against the Alt Right, neo-Nazi, skinheads, the KKK, and armed militia groups. These practices - which include public pressure and educational campaigns, neighborhood resistance groups, support for people trying to leave hate groups, direct confrontation, boycotts, doxxing, and much more - are what we need to turn antifascism into a mass movement for far-reaching social change."

Titre original: Insurrección: Las sangrientas jornadas del 3 a 7 de mayo del 1937 (Editorial Descontrol, 2017).
Langues : Anglais (eng) Langues originales : Espagnol (spa)
Catégories : ESPAGNE:Histoire:1936-1939 ; PARTIS POLITIQUES:P.o.u.m. Résumé : "In May, 1937, one of the most advanced revolutions in modern history was defeated. In Insurrection, Agustín Guillamón explains how Stalinist counterrevolution and republican reformism disarmed the threat of the anarchist working class in the Spanish Revolution. While anarchist “leadership” flailed, the defense committees were weakened, which allowed bourgeois institutions to gain power and strengthened the republican state. Using new information gathered from archives and interviews, Guillamón tackles some of the most vexing questions about the Spanish Civil War, retelling the story George Orwell recounted but failed to fully understand in Homage to Catalonia."
