Episode 24: 'Debating Anarchism,' with Mike Finn and Dana Mills

ABC With Danny and Jim

This episode is something of a special, a recording of our first ever ‘live’ event, which was held on Friday 8 October on Zoom. We were delighted to be joined by Mike Finn and Dana Mills, to mark the recent publication of Mike’s book ‘Debating Anarchism’ (Bloomsbury 2021).

Mike’s book is a brilliant, provocative introduction to the debates which surround anarchist history and theory, so we felt this would be a good opportunity to explore some of these with Mike himself, and Dana, an activist and author of – amongst many other works – a brilliant biography of Rosa Luxembourg, published in 2020 with Reaktion Books. Towards the end of the conversation we opened up for some audience questions.
