Acerca de este libro electrónico
Anarchism and Other Essays by Emma Goldman is a revolutionary collection of radical thought, social critique, and fearless advocacy for human freedom. First published in 1910, this seminal work features thirteen essays that reflect Goldman’s uncompromising vision of a just and liberated society, addressing issues that remain strikingly relevant over a century later. The book begins with the cornerstone essay, “Anarchism: What It Really Stands For,” which dispels popular misconceptions and articulates a compelling case for anarchism as a philosophy rooted in liberty, mutual aid, and individual dignity. Goldman challenges conventional morality and power structures with piercing insight in essays such as “The Psychology of Political Violence,” “Prisons: A Social Crime and Failure,” and “Patriotism: A Menace to Liberty.” She denounces militarism, institutional oppression, and capitalist exploitation with both passion and clarity. Goldman’s advocacy for women’s rights is especially powerful. Essays like “The Traffic in Women,” “Woman Suffrage,” and “Marriage and Love” confront the patriarchal norms and legal frameworks that dehumanize and confine women. She dares to expose the hypocrisy of Puritanism and argues for a new form of personal and sexual freedom. Her piece on Francisco Ferrer and the Modern School honors educational innovation and intellectual rebellion, while “The Modern Drama” offers a striking defense of art as a catalyst for political transformation. This book is more than a collection of essays—it is a manifesto for personal and collective liberation. Goldman's fiery intellect and unshakable moral courage make Anarchism and Other Essays a cornerstone of anarchist literature and an enduring voice for freedom, equality, and dissent.
