Von der hinteren Coverseite

'Fuck May 68,' the Athenian walls scream, 'Fight Now!' This graffiti is a call to arms from the world’s most militant anarchist and anti-authoritarian movement. This book, the first major ethnographic study of the Athenian activist milieu, provides rare on-the-ground insights into its struggles against capitalism, the state and rising fascism. It also unravels the movement’s internal complexities, unities and tensions. Greece, and specifically Athens, has become the epicentre of capitalist economic crisis – as well as of radical resistance to its consequences. In this context, this highly engaged and emotionally committed book has important implications for social movements and radicalism globally.
