MIM Theory #8
The Anarchist Ideal and Communist Revolution

We offer our present and past critiques of anarchist theory and practice, specific anarchist groups, and great moments in anarchist history. MIM has often challenged anarchists to produce evidence that anarchism ever liberated anyone from oppression or offered a concrete alternative to the gains of communist revolution led by the proletarian party. (112 pp.)

Reviews:

"I find your critique of Anarchism, much to my chagrin, right on target. I regret that most self-professed Anarchists fail to make the transition from theory to practice, at least constructively. . . . I certainly can't claim any profound understanding of Maoism but I do find myself in agreement with much that I've read so far. . . . I wish all the leftist factions would give as much attention to detail."
