Candid_Chameleon reviewed Direct Action by David Graeber
At times a trudge, but worth it
4 stars
Much of the first part revolves around a recreated narrative of a Direct Action event, from the author's notes.
Later the book becomes a sort of analysis of these events, how they fit into the Anarchist culture, and how that culture fits into the Capitalist society around it.
All in all, a good introduction into what Anarchy and Direct Action are, how they work in theory and how the author has seen them work in practice.
