marxistleftreview.org Nestor Makhno: the failure of anarchism
Mick Armstrong dismantles the romanticism surrounding Makhno in some anarchist circles today with a study of his activity during the Russian Civil War.
This essay was written in response to the revived interest in the Makhno Movement during the Russian Revolution. The work debunks the claims that the Makhno Movement (and Anarchism) was a viable alternative to State Socialism in defeating the opponents of the Russian Revolution or building a socialist alternative.
