First edition. Separating the notion of anarchism from industrial and political struggles, Ward seeks its root in everyday experience. ‘The argument of this book is that an anarchist society, a society which organizes itself without authority, is always in existence, like a seed beneath the snow, buried under the weight of the state and its bureaucracy, capitalism and its waste, privilege and its injustices, nationalism and its suicidal loyalties, religious differences and their superstitious separatism’ (p. 11).
