While there have been historical accounts of the Anarchist school movement,

there has as yet been no systematic work on the philosophical underpinnings

of Anarchist educational ideas until now. Focusing on the neglected

tradition of Anarchist thought on education, Judith Suisa draws on the work

of 19th century Anarchist theorists such as Bakunin, Kropotkin and

Proudhon. The study also covers 20th century thinkers such as Noam Chomsky,

Paul Goodman and Colin Ward.
