As I write this, hundreds of thousands of people are leaving their homes to avoid fires in France and Spain. Surrey is on fire, and parts of Scotland are still covered in ash. It’s a trite point, but events like this have been happening in poorer parts of the world for decades. Yet as the […]
Cities are often the focus of radical ideas – the audience is closer, more left leaning, the ideas find easier paths to resonate. But what of places like Ipswich, or Bury, or Lowestoft? Depending on your focus, as an anarchist, how you build a presence will (obviously) have differences. Housing activists work under different constraints […]

Since I recognised myself an anarchist, I have always been an “idealist” for taking it to the Messianic, a “believer” of The Idea. I was fascinated (and continue to be fascinated) by all the stories and experiences that Anarchism has brought, fought for and defended in the name of a conviction that a more dignified […]

PrefaceThe Makhnovist movement (popularly and semi-pejoratively referred to as the makhnovshchina) was a relatively short-lived peasant and industrial worker anarchist insurgency in Ukraine that existed from 1917-1921. The popular history of the Makhnovist movement is lacking, which has led to the claim that the Makhnovist movement constituted, in fact, a centralized state with a centralized […]

Recent months have seen a wave of headlines celebrating a vote to decriminalise abortion in England and Wales.

March 8, International Women’s Day, is routinely invoked by governments, NGOs, and pundits as a day to celebrate women’s achievements.

Authoritarian socialists, communists, and even some anarchists believe that the labor movement and the socialist/anarchist movement are the same and share identical goals. In this article, I want to show that there is a difference between these movements and to explain how this misunderstanding arises. This does not mean that the working class which drives […]
Syrian government integration proposalThe Syrian government submitted a “revised” integration proposal to the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) on December 6. It is likely that Turkey dictated the terms of this proposal. As of now, the Syrian government has not commented on the specifics of the proposal. In October 2025, the Syrian government and the SDF […]
An important place to start is to say that our collective doesn’t have a monopoly on anarchy in the Bournemouth area and that writing anything about the state of movements where autonomy is such a key feature is always going to be vulnerable to missing out things that others are doing but we can only […]
Maybe you’ve read Hwang Dongyun’s book “Anarchism in Korea,” or George Katsiaficas’ essay Peter Kropotkin and People’s Uprisings: From the Paris Commune to the Kwangju Uprising. However, as abundant as such examples of past attempts are, those who called themselves anarchists often did not act like one, and those who did, did not claim to […]
When asked to write this article, I accepted enthusiastically and without hesitation. Admittedly, I love to write and leapt at the chance to work on something other than an instagram caption.

For a year now, we have been publishing regular reports on the situation in Syria and our assessment of it. Even when you are in the region, it is often difficult to untangle the web of events unfolding there — a year ago, we called it 4D chess. And that is still how it feels […]
Every year around July I start asking fellow anarchists around the world what they think is the state or health of Anarchism, globally and locally. Partially this is a prompt for submissions to Spindrift, however deeper than that, it’s become my own annual tradition to gauge what’s going on globally and locally. A time in […]

The tradition of anarchism in the Philippines reemerged in the 1990s and 2000s, partially driven by punk subculture, the great schism in the Philippine left, and the general post-communist condition imposed by the collapse of the Soviet Union.

BELÉM, BRAZIL — As the COP30 climate summit comes to a close here in Belém, in the Brazilian state of Pará, conference organizers have little to show after two weeks of highly publicized talks.

Initially, none of us were thinking about going to the No Kings Protest on October 18th. We thought that the march would be a waste of our energy, and most of us were long tired of the same formula of the A-to-B march. However, Crimethinc’s call for anti-authoritarian blocs at No Kings 2 was enough […]
We call it “Anarchist Christmas”. It’s not because of all the pageantry, or the stack of presents you leave with, or even the cake. We live in a divided world, spiralling further into reactionary protectionism and hostile politics cheered on by hate-filled populists. No one is finding inspiration in the doomscroll. The authoritarians and capitalists […]

We were always terrorists, we were always illegal. Whether it’s on the streets, during some occupation, or just sat at home, the weight of the state is always upon us. Every Anarchist knows this; whether they have the paperwork to back up their actions is a secondary thought. Should they wish, at any point, unless […]
