  • Summary

    This chapter explains the book’s rationale and structure and the relationship between the theoretical and empirical dimensions of the case study of the anarchist constitution. Acknowledging the neglect of anarchism in constitutional theory and of constitutionalism in contemporary anarchist thought, it argues that the overdue recovery of a long-standing anarchist constitutional tradition brings anarchism fully into dialogue with contemporary politics, history, International Relations and critical legal studies and provides a timely and fresh critical perspective on pressing problems of social justice, domination and the degradation of democracy. The chapter highlights the novelty of the analytic frame and addresses the methodological issues created by the attempt to bring anarchism into arenas from which it has been excluded.
