Despite many obstacles, the Post-Anarchism Reader project continues (I will address these obstacles both in the book and on this blog in the future). Although I have had a contract on my desk for the last few months, I feel that it is more important to continue to negotiate with Pluto Press at this time [you may note that Pluto published Uri Gordon's Anarchy Alive! (2007), Richard Day's Gramsci is Dead (2005), John Moore and Spencer Sunshine's edited volume I am not a man, I am dynamite! (2004), Hakim Bey's Temporary Autonomous Zone (2004), John Holloway's Change the world without taking power (2005), Daniel Singer's Prelude to Revolution: France in May 1968 (2003), Joanne Richardson's Anarchitexts.] The latest update, from Pluto, is that all three peer reviews came back positive (very positive), I have responded to them and await a full decision in the very near future. For now, I hope that the table of contents is at least somewhat useful/interesting to you folks.

Hi Duane. I am interested in reading an advanced copy of "Anarchist Poetics" -- is this possible? Or are the works being cloistered until publication?
ReplyDeleteYou can read a copy if you like, just send me your email address (mine is Du ane (dot) Rous selle (at) unb (dot) ca). You might also read the old version of the essay which appeared in Fifth Estate (2006: 34-38), also found here: http://info.interactivist.net/node/5509.
ReplyDeleteHi there, I'm also interested in reading an advanced copy of one of the chapters. Is there any way I can access 'Emma Goldman: The postanarchist'? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteAs a note, Pluto is not the publisher of "I am not a man, I am dynamite!" (2004), "Temporary Autonomous Zone" (2004), or "Anarchitexts" All of those books are published by Autonomedia, not Pluto.
