anarchism: a beginner’s guide<br />
Anarchists remain divided about how best they promote anarchist<br />
action and one of the issues that most divides opinion is the use of<br />
violence. Yet none of the responses anarchists give to the issue of<br />
violence suggests that anarchist action is motivated by irrationality<br />
or a messianic devotion to a cult of destruction. Anarchists have<br />
developed their strategies for change in particular historic and political<br />
conditions in order to meet complex sets of ideas about the<br />
nature and purpose of anarchist goals.<br />
