Mabel Dodge 1 Mabel Dodge was rich and attractive and more than a little lucky. For two years -- from 1912 to 1914 -- she played hostess to the most famous and no doubt the most interesting salon in American history. This success was no accident, but the result of a subtle interplay between her individual needs and ambitions and the historical moment. It was a very special period in the cultural life of the United States, one when expatriate Irish painter John Butler Yeats cocked an ear and heard "the fiddles • tuning as it were allover America.

    U.S. $22.95 Political Science anarchy ! Anarchy! An Anthology of Emma Goldman’s MOTHER EARTH (1906–1918) is the first An A n t hol o g y collection of work drawn from the pages of the foremost anarchist journal published in America—provocative writings by Goldman, Margaret Sanger, Peter Kropotkin, Alexander Berkman, and dozens of other radical thinkers of the early twentieth cen- tury. For this expanded edition, editor Peter Glassgold contributes a new preface that offers historical grounding to many of today’s political movements, from liber- tarianism on the right to Occupy! actions on the left, as well as adding a substantial section, “The Trial and Conviction of Emma Goldman and Alexander Berkman,” which includes a transcription of their eloquent and moving self-defense prior to their imprisonment and deportation on trumped-up charges of wartime espionage. of E m m A g ol dm A n’s Mot h er ea rt h “An indispensable book . a judicious, lively, and enlightening work.” —Paul Avrich, author of Anarchist Voices “Peter Glassgold has done a great service to the activist spirit by returning to print Mother Earth’s often stirring, always illuminating essays.” —Alix Kates Shulman, author of Memoirs of an Ex-Prom Queen “It is wonderful to have this collection of pieces from the days when anarchism was an ism— and so heady a brew that the government had to resort to illegal repression to squelch it. What’s more, it is still a heady brew.” —Kirkpatrick Sale, author of The Dwellers in the Land “Glassgold opens with an excellent brief history of the publication.

  • One Hundred Years Since October
    1 2 3 4 One Hundred Years since October 5 6 7 Suzi Weissman 8 9 10 11 The Russian Revolution of October 1917 opened up a new historical epoch and was 12 greeted with enthusiasm by workers around the world. Never before had workers 13 come close to winning power, though many participated in political life in the social 14 democratic parties of Western Europe. Now, suddenly, in Russia, revolution was an 15 actuality, not simply a hope or a threat, as a huge country broke from international 16 capitalism. It is almost impossible to imagine today the intoxicating power of that 17 moment: Victor Serge described it as one where “life is beginning anew, where con- 18 scious will, intelligence, and an inexorable love of mankind are in action.”1 19 20 Russian Revolution as Workers’ Democracy / Workers’ Power 21 Workers around the world greeted the Russian Revolution with jubilation because it 22 represented their broadest aspirations, a new “democracy of free workers, such as had 23 never before been seen.”2 In Russia’s frontline cities of Petrograd and Moscow, Tash- 24 kent and Kazan, and in the provinces from Tula to Tambov, Ryazan to Kaluga, in 25 the networks of railroads across the country, hundreds of thousands of workers, peas- 26 ants, and soldiers took their fate into their own hands. They organized collectively 27 at the level of industry, agriculture, and garrisons, forming committees and councils, 28 developing their politics, their leaderships, and their power to fight their employers 29 and the state, all at the same time.

  • John Reed and Revolution
    1 JOHN REED AND REVOLUTION oday, Americans face intense terrorist threats and thus hard choices: Which rights and freedoms can we, must we, curtail in Torder to be safer in our streets and homes? Can our government tap wires without a court order? Detain suspected enemies without spe- cifi c charges? Subject members of one religious group to additional scru- tiny at our borders? These are precisely the sorts of decisions that J. Edgar Hoover and his successors faced in dealing with Communism for much of the twentieth century, so there should be a great deal we could learn from reading about that time. But today, Communism and anti- Communism are just terms that appear on tests, like the Whig, Greenback, or Know- Nothing parties. Flattened out into a chronology of unfamiliar names and forgettable dates, the great dramas of the twentieth century are useless to us. We can benefi t from the story of Communism and anti- Communism only if we experience it as the people who lived it did — with passion. Once you step MASTERDECEIT_BGI_US.indd 3 10/14/11 1:29 PM inside the mind of that recent past, you will have a new tool for facing the challenges of our time. THE TRUTH OF AMERICAN HISTORY There are two ways to tell the story of America. Here’s one: Yearning to be free, courageous individuals set out from England to the New World. From the Mayfl ower on, the spirit of this land has been that of liberty and personal effort. No longer needing to bow to kings or obey priests, Americans set out to improve themselves and to show the world what democracy, industry, and individual effort could achieve.

  • The Other Voices of October: the Russian Revolution of 1917
    The Other Voices of October: The Russian Revolution of 1917 In the Fall of 2017, as we looked back a hundred years after the Russian Revolution, a clearer and more populated picture began to emerge; a different picture from the one that we have become accustomed to. With the ending of the Cold War, some of the political passions that have clouded and affected the interpretation of this global event have begun to fade. This has allowed scholars to think more deeply about what a revolution is, and more importantly, in what ways do they represent a historical rupture that allows us to imagine another future? To mark the centenary of the Russian Revolution in the fall of 2017, I created a graduate course entitled, “The Other Voices of October. The Russian Revolutions of 1917.” Instead of assigning the usual books on Lenin and Trotsky that have dominated Russian history courses for many decades, I looked for works by individual thinkers who had been repressed after 1917, and about political parties that were defeated by the Bolsheviks. The assembled readings explicitly challenge the framing of 1917 as an exclusively Bolshevik revolution, and instead reprise the many political visions, and dreams that surfaced during the tumultuous years of 1917-1921! The revolution of 1917 can be best described as waves of popular movements led by soldiers, sailors, workers, peasants, students, national minorities, and men and women of the intelligentsia: representing a broad spectrum of the Russian empire. Yet, for the most part, 1917 has been represented in historical scholarship both in Russia and in the West as at the time when the Bolshevik party came to power.
