Author: Freire, Joao

Condition: New

By tracing the anarchist movement from the early years of this century, through the Spanish Civil War and World War II, through the dictatorship of Salazer's regime, and the "carnation revolution" in 1974, to contemporary time, this book becomes both a history of anarchism in Portugal, and a sociological analysis of the relationship between this ideology and the structure of craft and industries.Given the general inadequacy of information available, be it about Portugal or a distant and controlled analysis of anarchism, the reading of Freedom Fighters will be a very interesting disclosure for a fairly widespread number of readers in English.Joo Freire is a professor of Sociology at the University of Lisbon.
