The Revolt of the Unique
Our epoch is an epoch of decadence. Bourgeois-christian-plebeian civilization arrived at the dead end of its evolution a long time ago. Democracy has arrived! But under the false splendor of democratic civilization, higher spiritual values have fallen, shattered. Willful strength, barbarous individuality, free art, heroism, genius, poetry have been scorned, mocked, slandered. And not in the name of "I", but of the "collective". Not in the name of "the unique one", but of society. Thus christianity - condemning the primitive and wild force of the virgin instinct - killed the vigorously pagan "concept" of the joy of the earth. Democracy - its offspring - glorified itself making the justificati...
Enemies of Society
This book tells the story of the most neglected tendency in anarchist thought; egoism. Egoism, and individualist anarchism, suffer a different kind of fate. It is not a great history and glorious failure but an obscure series of stories of winning, with victory defined by the only terms that matter, those of people who lived life to their fullest and whose struggle against the existing order defined them. This struggle was not one of abstractions, of Big Ideas, but of people attempting to claim an authentic stake in their own life. Inspired by the writings of Stirner's "The Ego and His Own" the assertion these people make is not of the composition of a better world (for everyone) but of how the machinations of society, especially one of abstractions and Big Ideas, have shaped the individual members of that society. How everything that we know and believe has been shaped (by structure and intent) into a conformed, denatured shadow of what we could be.
The Rebel's Dark Laughter
The brilliant rage and intellectual erudition of the tragic Bruno Filippi, a true outlaw in both the literary and the societal sense, is herein contained in some of his most astounding "thought-bombs." An incendiary manifesto of his personal beliefs, as well as his observations upon the world in which he struggled, the tragic Filippi reminds the reader that his days may well be numbered. Alas, the young anarchist was correct: Filippi was killed in 1920, at the age of nineteen, attempting to mount an attack against what he considered to be the forces of oppression, the Ruling Class. His uncompromising literary voice lives well beyond him though, in the pages of this slim volume. Trans. by "W.L." Anti-copyright. Reproduce and distribute at will.
Men Against the State
“...the starting point for anyone concerned with the antecedents of libertarianism in the United States...” MEN AGAINST THE STATE first appeared in the spring of 1953. Within a matter of months it had received nearly fifty highly commendatory reviews in thirteen countries in seven languages. Few products of American scholarly research in our time have gained more widespread international respect in such a short time. This book brought back into view a tradition which almost disappeared between the beginning of the First World War and the end of the Second, the philosophy and deeds of anti-statist libertarian voluntarism in the United States during the three generations which flourished b...
Novatore
Renzo Novatore is the pen-name of Abele Rizieri Ferrari who was born in Arcola, Italy (a village of La Spezia) on May 12, 1890 to a poor peasant family. Unwilling to adapt to scholastic discipline, he only attended a few months of the first grade of grammar school and then left school forever. Though his father forced him to work on the farm, his strong will and thirst for knowledge led him to become a self-taught poet and philosopher. Exploring these matters outside the limits imposed by the educational system, as a youth he read Stirner, Nietzsche, Wilde, Ibsen, Baudelaire, Schopenauer, and many others with a critical mind. Renzo died on November 22 (1922), at the hands of the cops. We are very excited to present this collection of all of the known writings of Renzo Novatore, newly translated by Wolfi Landstreicher. It contains the fiery polemics, poetry, and willful play that readers of "Toward the Creative Nothing" are already familiar with. For those new to the writings of Renzo prepare for an emotional cavalcade of egoism, nihilism, and hatred for democratic mediocrity. To life!
Immediatism
An irresistible tome from the insurrectionist theoretician, Hakim Bey. His incendiary words are beautifully illustrated by the renowned collage artist Freddie Baer. The result is a delightful compilation by two talented artists. A must read for those who have followed their work for years. In this collection of essays, Bey expounds upon his ideas concerning radical social reorganization and the liberation of desire. Immediatism is another lyrical romp through intellectual corridors of spirituality and politics originally set forth in his groundbreaking book, TAZ. A stunning achievement from this prodigious author and scholar. "A Blake Angel on Acid."--Robert Anton Wilson "Fascinating..."--William S. Burroughs "Exquisite..."--Allen Ginsberg
The Revolt of the Unique and Toward the Creative Nothing
The harsh, anti-establishment anarchism of the unrepentant and uncompromising poet and philosopher is here proclaimed in his own inimitable, mystic style. Renzo Novatore was a writer and rebel in fascist Italy. Born on a farm, his early, rebellious nature lead him to study the works of Stirner and Nietzsche. Taken with the philosophy of anarchism, he fought many battles against Mussolini's Blackshirts, once even holding them at bay with grenades. His short, brutal life was marked by a busy, intellectual restlessness, and brilliant, poetic prose, dedicated to the liberation of man and the spirit of egoist individualism. Killed in a gun battle with the Italian military police in 1922, he will forever be remembered as a tireless champion against oppression and for the cause of human liberation. Published by Zem Books.

Anarchist Economics
What is Anarchist Economics When it comes to economic activity, anarchist economics refers to the collection of theories and activities that are associated with the political theory of anarchism. It is common practice to refer to anarchism as a sort of libertarian socialism, which is a stateless form of socialism. A significant number of anarchists are anti-authoritarian and anti-capitalist. Personal property is something that anarchists believe in and support. They are opposed to capital concentration, interest, monopoly, and private ownership of productive property, which includes the means of production, profit, rent, usury, and wage slavery. These are all components that are considered t...
