On anarchy noam chomsky6/24/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Some of the pieces are better than others - the middle section on the Spanish civil war is the most interesting but is a review of a book that probably no one has read since the sixties so it is not the best anarchist history of that time period. It is also quite often repetitive - not on Chomsky's part but if he wants to quote the same passage from Humboldt at different points across a thirty year period it is probably up to an editor to not to collect all those quotations together. It is not analytic or deeply thought through the inclusion criteria seems to be if Chomsky mentions anarchism in the text then it is in. What is not made clear anywhere in the description of the book is that this is a collection of pieces, often excerpts from longer works, including interviews and book reviews where Chomsky talks about anarchism. ![]()
