Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1961 The Unmentionable Nechaev presents a full account of Sergei Nechaev’s extraordinary life. The name of Nechaev is little known today in the western world. Michael Prawdin expounds his teachings and shows the strain of Nechaevism running through the Russian revolutionary movement and the part it played in the success of the Bolshevik revolution. Step by step the author analyses Lenin’s build up of his party and reveals how he used Nechaev’s conspiratory system. The book explains why at the moment of victory Nechaev was suddenly hailed as an ancestor of Bolshevism only to be just as suddenly once more repudiated and relegated to obscurity. This book is an essential read for scholars and researchers of Soviet history, Communist history, and history in general.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examining the political theory of anarchism from a philosophical and historical perspective, Paul McLaughlin relates anarchism to the fundamental ethical and political problem of authority. The book pays particular attention to the authority of the state and the anarchist rejection of all traditional claims made for the legitimacy of state authority, the author both explaining and defending the central tenets of the anarchist critique of the state. The founding works of anarchist thought, by Godwin, Proudhon and Stirner, are explored and anarchism is examined in its historical context, including the influence of such events as the Enlightenment and the French Revolution on anarchist thought. Finally, the major theoretical developments of anarchism from the late-nineteenth century to the present are summarized and evaluated. This book is both a highly readable account of the development of anarchist thinking and a lucid and well-reasoned defence of the anarchist philosophy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Revolutionary Catechism is primarily concerned with the immediate practical problems of the revolution. It was meant to sketch out for new and prospective members of the International Fraternity both the fundamental libertarian principles and a program of action. The Revolutionary Catechism does not attempt to picture the perfect anarchist society - the anarchist heaven. Bakunin had in mind a society in transition toward anarchism. The building of a full-fledged anarchist society is the work of future generations.

Book excerpt: This is the first complete biography in any language of the Russian revolutionary Vera Zasulich, who gained worldwide prominence in 1878 by walking into the office of the brutal General Trepov, Governor of St. Petersburg, and shooting him. Acquitted by a sympathetic jury, she escaped to Western Europe, where she became a Marxist and spent the next quarter-century tirelessly preaching the revolutionary cause and trying to keep the peace among Russian socialists and populists. Although she returned to Russian after the 1905 Revolution, she was too ill and discouraged by her failure to unite the various revolutionary factions to remain politically active. Zasulich embodies many important characteristics of the Russian revolutionaries of her time. Some had their positive side: the disenchantment with autocratic rule that caused the intelligentsia to turn against the state; the peculiarly Russian penchant for carrying ideas to their logical conclusion, as in the shooting of Trepov; the conviction that the affluent and the educated must take the lead in redistributing society's resources. But there were also, inevitably, the ravages that revolution inflicted on the lives of those who adopted it as a profession: the disillusionment, the broken friendships, the damaged psyches. In 1919, two years after the Bolshevik Revolution, which she condemned, Vera Zasulich died poor and virtually friendless in Petrograd.

Book excerpt: J.M. Coetzee's latest novel, The Schooldays of Jesus, is now available from Viking. Late Essays: 2006-2016 will be available January 2018. In the fall of 1869 Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky, lately a resident of Germany, is summoned back to St. Petersburg by the sudden death of his stepson, Pavel. Half crazed with grief, stricken by epileptic seizures, and erotically obsessed with his stepson's landlady, Dostoevsky is nevertheless intent on unraveling the enigma of Pavel's life. Was the boy a suicide or a murder victim? Did he love his stepfather or despise him? Was he a disciple of the revolutionary Nechaev, who even now is somewhere in St. Petersburg pursuing a dream of apocalyptic violence? As he follows his stepson's ghost—and becomes enmeshed in the same demonic conspiracies that claimed the boy—Dostoevsky emerges as a figure of unfathomable contradictions: naive and calculating, compassionate and cruel, pious and unspeakably perverse.
