Anarchy and Society explores the many ways in which the discipline of Sociology and the philosophy of anarchism are compatible. The book constructs possible parameters for an anarchist sociology’, by a sociological exposition of major anarchist thinkers (Kropotkin, Proudhon, Landauer, Goldman, and Ward), as well as an anarchist interrogation of key sociological concepts (social norms, inequality, and social movements).
