“…Indeed, when anarchism emerged as a distinctive 'anti-authoritarian' current in the socialist movement during the early 1870s, significant figures, including Mikhail Bakunin, used republicanism as a critical foil. Embracing republican tropes of liberation, he and others promoted an anti-state internationalist vision of emancipation, thus parting company with many emergent 'nationalists' who conflated independence with traditional forms of governance (cf., Cipko, 1990;Pernicone, 1993).…”

“…Notwithstanding the rich body of historical research on nationally based anarchist movements in the Americas, Asia and Europe, (e.g., Bowen Raddeker, 1997;Carlson, 1972;Craib, 2016;Dirlik, 1991;Esenwein, 1989;Goyens, 2007;Hwang, 2016;Maitron, 1951;Pernicone, 1993;Shaffer, 2013;Zimmer, 2015), anarchist perspectives on the national question remain neglected in nationalism studies. By the same token, few of the anarchism studies that touch upon the anarchists' involvement in independence movements and involvement with nationalisms provide sustained theoretical reflection on the nation or discuss the scholarship in nationalism studies (e.g., Casanovas, 2000;Dirlik, 1991;Hwang, 2016;Porter, 2011;Serrano, 1986;Van der Walt & Hirsch, 2010).…”

This article provides an introduction to the themed section 'Anarchism and the national question-historical, theoretical and contemporary perspectives.' We discuss first the long and often overlooked engagement of anarchists with the colonial and national liberation question, particularly-but not exclusively-in the heyday of the movement (from the second half of the 19th to the first decades of the 20th century). We discuss in particular the overlaps and tensions between anarchists and republicans (those who favoured republics as opposed to monarchies) and anti-colonial nationalists (anti-colonialists who defended the right of national self-determination). Then we proceed to discuss the potential for a dialogue between anarchist and nationalism studies based on three interventions. First, to problematise the narrative that conflates nations with state-building processes. Second, to better grasp the emergence of alternatives to the nation-state as a historical construct. Third, to complicate narratives that associate in an unproblematic fashion internationalism and classless society. Finally, the introduction highlights the four questions which lie at the core of the themed section and discuss briefly how the papers relate to these.

“…Thus Costa envisaged a minimum programme in collectivism advanced by electoral means but a maximum goal of anarcho-communism. 29 There are several fields that still need further study. One might study the leadership and cadre formations of the iwma through the lenses of romanticism, generational history and friendship circles, as had been done for the Risorgimento.30 Further, we now possess the biographical data located in dictionaries to compose a statistical superstructure which might be able to contrast the popular classes with this elite, through comprehensive prosopographical studies.…”

“…Another early sociologist commonly read by anarchists was Herbert Spencer. In fact, Spencer may have been one of the most widely read by 19th-century anarchists, including many famous figures like Emma Goldman (Wexler, 1984), Bartolomeo Vanzetti (and many other Italian anarchists; Avrich, 1991; Pernicone, 2009), Peter Kropotkin, and Benjamin Tucker. The work that put Spencer on the anarchists’ radar was his essay ‘The Right to Ignore the State’ (published in Social Statistics , 1969 [1851]).…”

Anarchism has not had a noticeable impact upon sociology. The two traditions diverged in their interest in society and their relationship to it. This paper contrasts the practitioners or thinkers of one tradition against the other. The analysis shows some strong antagonisms, many instances of close analysis and critique of each other’s perspectives, and a number of friendly and supportive relationships between anarchists and sociologists. Anarchists tended to admire the intellectual rigor of sociologists, but thought sociologists were insiders – mere reformers at best, reactionaries at worst – content to study society, but rarely to act for its improvement. Sociologists viewed anarchists with an even wider range of opinion, including considering them principled and admirable revolutionaries, slightly naïve utopians, or criminals and chaos-lovers bent on the destruction of social order. These factors contributed to the exclusion of anarchist ideas and anarchists themselves from the sociological canon.
