Autonomy, Solidarity, Possibility: The Colin Ward Reader

"Widely regarded as Britain's most influential anarchist thinker for over half a century, Colin Ward's work ranges in scope from urban planning to deschooling, from mutualism to geography, from Kropotkin to Buber, to cotters, squatters, and beyond. Drawing inspiration from the everyday creativity of ordinary people, Ward championed a unique social and environmental politics premised on the possibilities of democratic self-organisation and self-management from below. Autonomy, Solidarity, Possibility provides a wide-ranging overview of Ward's earliest journalism and his later work, including seminal essays and extracts from his most important books."--Publisher's website.
