Fragments of an Anarchist Anthropology

by: David Graeber

Publisher: Prickly Paradigm Press (2004)

$12.95

Staff Pick by comrade: Olive

In Fragments, Graeber assesses the current gulf between academic anthropology and anarchist movements, and explores anthropology's potential in creating new theories of anarchist social organization and informing anti-state movements. In doing so, Graeber draws from foundational theoretical work in anthropology as well as his own experience in conducting field research in stateless societies.
