This is a very rare publication – anarchopacifism doesn’t actually get a lot of media coverage. However, it is the philosophy of Leo Tolstoy, Dorothy Day, Liz MacAlister, David Dillinger and many other well known, effective advocates of practical anarchism. There is an underlying faith perspective, but not overwhelmingly so. When it does surface it can be pagan or Christian, eastern or western in focus. The non-violence these people describe isn’t just from the perspective of those in safe settings. From Chiapas to Palestine to the front lines of militant protests, testing the theory of non-violence in violent settings is a key focus of this publication. They are open to new writers wanting to explore alternatives both to institutional hierarchies and violence. I’d like to see more graphics, but that is my only real criticism. (Brian Burch)
