El socialismo de lo pequeño en Hondarribia
Este es el relato de las gentes de las localidades de Irún y Hondarribia cercanas al mundo cultural socialista a través de la metodología de la historia oral. Todos y todas tienen algo que decirnos. Proceden de todos los perfiles profesionales y desde diferentes lugares de toda la geografía española. Y no solo son meros militantes socialistas, sino hombres y mujeres a los que les mueve el compromiso social y progresista por colaborar en los tejidos culturales del pueblo. Existe un alma social latente en todos los protagonistas del libro. Lo hacen no solo por mejorar la vida diaria de sus convecinos, sino por un afán de reivindicar esa intrahistoria de todos aquellos que intentaron mejo...
Resistencia socialista en femenino
Esta es una historia sobre las mujeres socialistas vascas que vivieron la dictadura franquista y más tarde el totalitarismo de ETA, mujeres que contribuyeron a que la democracia pudiera consolidarse y vieron luego a la dictadura de ETA asentarse. Porque ellas, aunque no siempre estuvieran en primera línea, contribuyeron no solamente a la supervivencia del ideal socialista durante la dictadura, sino también al advenimiento y consolidación democrática. Después, cuando el terrorismo de ETA embistió duramente al socialismo vasco, ellas también estuvieron en la primera línea. Han sido mujeres alcaldesas, concejalas, junteras, parlamentarias, consejeras, pero también militantes de base, ...
La Guerra Civil española, una visión bibliográfica
La bibliografía sobre la Guerra Civil no ha cesado de aumentar, ni dentro ni fuera de España. Esta tendencia se observa desde hace varios años y nada hace pensar que vaya a disminuir en los próximos. En 2016 el número de publicaciones se habrá incrementado, pues no en vano se cumple el octogésimo aniversario del comienzo del conflicto. Los años entre 2016 y 2019 se perfilan como un período en el que los interesados en lo que parece ser un tema inagotable centrarán una parte sustancial de sus investigaciones. Y esto con independencia de que el mercado no siempre se muestre tan acogedor como antes de la larga crisis económica que sufre, entre otros países, España. Este libro no tr...
Rethinking Anarchy
This is the first book by Carlos Taibo, a prolific and well-known social theorist in Spain, to be translated into English. Published in it’s original language in 2013, Rethinking Anarchy functions as both an introduction to and in-depth interrogation of anarchism as political philosophy and political strategy. Taibo introduces the basic tenets of anarchism while also diving into and unpacking the debates around each of them, producing a book that should appeal to both beginners and readers with extensive knowledge of the book’s theme. Topics touched upon include liberal versus direct democracy, the nature of the state and its relationship to capitalism, the role of autonomous and anticapitalist social spaces, and how anarchism relates to feminism, environmentalism, antimilitarism, and other struggles.
Franz Jagerstatter
Franz Jèagerstèatter, an Austrian farmer, devoted husband and father, and devout Catholic, was executed in 1943 for refusing to serve in the Nazi army. Before taking this stand Jèagerstèatter had consulted both his pastor and his local bishop, who instructed him to do his duty and to obey the law - an instruction that violated his conscience. For many years Jèagerstèatter's solitary witness was honored by the Catholic peace movement, while viewed with discomfort by many of his fellow Austrians. Now, with his beatification in 2007, his example has been embraced by the universal church.

Democracy Against the State
In the "Critique of Hegel's Philosophy of Right,” the young Marx elliptically alludes to a "true democracy" whose advent would go hand in hand with the disappearance of the state. Miguel Abensour’s rigorous interpretation of this seminal text reveals an “unknown Marx” who undermines the identification of democracy with the state and defends a historically occluded form of politics. True democracy does not entail the political and economic power of the state, but it does not dream of a post-political society either. On the contrary, the battle of democracy is waged by a demos that invents a public sphere of permanent struggles, a politics that counters political bureaucracy and representation. Democracy is "won" by a people forewarned that any dissolution of the political realm in its independence, any subordination to the state, is tantamount to annihilating the site for gaining and regaining a genuinely human existence. In this explicitly heterodox reading of Marx, Miguel Abensour proposes a theory of "insurgent" democracy that makes political liberty synonymous with a living critique of domination.
