By pure coincidence the leading Canadian daily Globe and Mail had on Aug 11. a review of three anarchist books presented as three books for thought.
The title of the review was "Government? Who needs it?" The subtitle was "People use the term 'anarchy' recklessly, Daniel Morley Johnson says. They might be surprised at what it actually means".
The review starts with two recent examples of two self-proclaimed anarchists (an employee of Environment Canada, an American professor) begin clearly dealt with more harshly/discriminated against, because anarchism is (still) associated with some sort of menace.
The three books were:
1. The Conquest of Bread, by Peter Kropotkin, 1892 (first time in English in 1906)
2. An Anthology of Emma Goldman'd Mother Earth (Counterpoint 2001)
3. Wasase: Indigenous Pathways of Action and Freedom, by Canadian Mohawk scholar Taiaiake Alfred (Broadview 2005)
