Often remembered for the historic fights between Karl Marx and Michael Bakunin, the debates and experimentation during the International helped to refine and focus anarchist ideas into a doctrine of international working class self-liberation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is a breath of fresh air in a stuffy room.
