Hailed since its initial release, 'Film and the Anarchist Imagination' offers the authoritative account of films featuring anarchist characters and motifs. Richard Porton delves into the many ways filmmakers have portrayed anarchism's long traditions of labor agitation and revolutionary struggle. While acknowledging cinema's predilection for ludicrous anarchist stereotypes, he focuses on films that, wittingly or otherwise, reflect or even promote workplace resistance, anarchist pedagogy, self-emancipation, and anti-statist insurrection. For this updated second edition, Porton reflects on several new topics, including the negative portrayals of anarchism over the past twenty years and the contemporary embrace of post-anarchism.

The only comprehensive English-language survey of anarchism on film, Film and the Anarchist Imagination was first published in 1999, months before the Battle in Seattle heralded the revival of anarchism that persists to this day. In this fully revised new edition, Richard Porton updates his analysis to take stock of how cinema has registered twenty-first-century anarchist movements. (Provided by publisher)
