NOTE: THIS UPLOAD CUT THE LAST 15 MINUTES OR SO OFF. I REUPLOADED WITH A CORRECTED VERSION. PLEASE GO TO THE NEWER POST. I WILL BE UPLOADING THE NEXT TWO PARTS IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS.

This documentary is based on the book No Gods, No Masters: An Anthology of Anarchism by Daniel Guérin. It details the history, organization and practice of the European anarchist movement - its theorists, advocates and activists. A complaint would be all it leaves out, it leaves out individualist anarchists, indigenous anarchists, american anarchists, and anyone else not from western europe and part of the mainline anarchist movements. There was supposed to be a part 4 but the series was cancelled so perhaps it would have delved into more of those movements in the last part.

Part 1 starts with Proudhon and Bakunin in France and how their ideas differ from Marxism and Liberalism and their influence on the Paris Commune. It then shows how immigration spread anarchist ideas all over the globe finally landing in the United States and influencing labor unions. The degree of state violence directed at anarchists caused some of them to become violent as well and influenced the Propaganda of the Deed anarchists. It ends showing the "golden age" of anarcho-syndicalism which was the most influence anarchists ever had on society including anarchist "states" in Ukraine and Spain.
