Produktbeschreibung
How and when do anarchists go to war? Stumbling across a Reddit forum in 2021, Stout established contact with teenage Burmese rebels who were in military conflict with the junta. This unprofessional "army" is intuitively antiauthoritarian and resourceful beyond imagination--they 3D print working firearms in the jungle. The dreams, motivations, and hardships of these young adults are immediately recognizable, despite differing context across space and time. These young revolutionaries, colloquially referred to by Stout as "anarchists" for their nonhierarchical forms of organization based on mutual aid and solidarity, face incredible danger to pursue their expression of freedom. Against the State seeks to understand these anarchists, to honor their struggles, and ask tough questions about confronting the state. In doing so, Stout invites us to reimagine war in the twenty-first century. Against the State draws on Stout's research and experiences of conflict as an academic and journalist. What interests him in these regional conflicts, are places where people are taking care of one another while building new cooperative social relations. Stout provides testimony from those building democratic confederalism while fending off Turkish drones and ISIS fighters in Kurdistan, the young insurgents beating back the military junta in Burma, and those storied workers in 1936 that fought capitalism and fascism in the Spanish Civil War and Revolution. Against the State centers the voices of those too often overlooked in conflict studies and misunderstood by Western radical movements.
