Colin Ward Book order (chronological)

Colin Ward (1924-2010) war ein britischer Anarchist, Architekt und Schriftsteller, dessen Werke sich mit Soziologie, Anthropologie und Stadtplanung befassen. Er propagierte einen pragmatischen Anarchismus, der auf informellen, selbstorganisierenden Netzwerken basiert, anstatt die bestehende Gesellschaft abzulehnen. Sein Buch „Anarchism in Action“ behandelt, wie Menschen in verschiedenen Gesellschaften organisieren.

The Allotment is the classic study of allotments, it looks at British society and history through the culture of allotments. With a new introduction by Olivia Laing this book remains as relevant as ever and is essential for everyone interested in social history, land ownership and gardening in twenty- first century Britain.

The argument of this book is that an anarchist society, a society which organises itself without authority, is always in existence. Through a wide-ranging analysis - drawing on examples from education, urban planning, welfare, housing, the environment, the workplace, and the family, to name but a few - Colin Ward demonstrates that the roots of anarchist practice are not so alien or quixotic as they might at first seem but lie precisely in the ways that people have always tended to organise themselves when left alone to do so.
