The Iranian Revolution of 1979, the Iran-Iraq War, the Gulf War, and the
US invasion and occupation of Iraq have dramatically altered the geopo-
litical landscape of the contemporary Middle East. The Arab Spring upris-
ings have complicated this picture. This series puts forward a critical body
of first-rate scholarship that reflects the current political and social realities
of the region, focusing on original research about contentious politics
and social movements; political institutions; the role played by non-
governmental organizations such as Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Muslim
Brotherhood; and the Israeli-Palestine conflict. Other themes of interest
include Iran and Turkey as emerging pre-eminent powers in the region,
the former an ‘Islamic Republic’ and the latter an emerging democracy
currently governed by a party with Islamic roots; the Gulf monarchies,
their petrol economies and regional ambitions; potential problems of
nuclear proliferation in the region; and the challenges confronting the
United States, Europe, and the United Nations in the greater Middle
East. The focus of the series is on general topics such as social turmoil, war
and revolution, international relations, occupation, radicalism, democracy,
human rights, and Islam as a political force in the context of the modern
Middle East.

A Note on Transliteration and Translation


The frequent Arabic names—people, places, movements, journals or
groups- had lead me after much hesitation to apply a system of translit-
erating Arabic into English. Following the Encyclopedia of Islam in its
Third Edition, I decided to apply its system without the diacritics -
except the ‘ayn- as a convenience to nonspecialists. Students of Arabic and
Middle East studies should need no guidance to go through out them. If
names already had an equivalent and appear as cited in particular works in
Western languages, they have been kept in the same way.
Translations are all my own unless otherwise stated.

Toward a History of Southern Mediterranean


Anarchism

Why Anarchism in South of the Mediterranean?


In November 2019, a recently founded anarchist movement Kafeh!
(Fight!) issued a manifesto where it declared its total support for the
Lebanese revolution. According to its manifesto, the group is an anarchist
movement whose goal is to achieve a decentralized and non-authoritarian
society and considers that the ongoing Lebanese revolution represents the
philosophy of anarchism: it exercised direct decision making, it is decen-
tralized, non-hierarchical and anti-authoritarian. It rejects sectarianism,
racism and bureaucracy. It is against the “authoritarian and patriarchal
system in Lebanon and the existing dominant organization” (Kafeh 2019)
and supports absolute freedom. According to its writing and manifesto,
Kafeh! sees itself to be at the forefront of the revolution, a revolution that
is considered to represent the same anarchists ideals that they uphold.
The emergence of Kafeh! and its anarchist ideology and discourse on
the ongoing Lebanese revolution should not come as a surprise. Since
the spark of the social uprisings in the South of the Mediterranean in
2011, anarchists from the South of the Mediterranean have continuously
assured the anarchist hallmarks of these revolutions and their experience
of anarchism through them.
Seven years ago on the Second Anniversary of the 25th January revo-
lution in Egypt a group of hooded youth who identified themselves
as the Egyptian Black Bloc emerged in the country. The appearance,

performance and visibility of these new identities with new repertoires of


contentious politics, unseen in the region until the Arab revolutions but
closely related to the political culture of anarchism of the West, attracted
a lot of attention from the media and from Western anarchists and activist
circles.
Joshua Stephens (2013a, 2013b) wrote an interesting article entitled
“Representation and the Egyptian Black Bloc: The Siren Song of Orien-
talism?” where he critically questioned the media coverage and activist’s
interest in the West on this newly emerged tactic that reflected and
repeated some of the well-known practices of the Black Block (that as
a reminder appeared in Germany in the 1980s) and how some circles
were already debating the existence of anarchist ideologies in the Arabic-
speaking countries. It was the first time anarchism was a question on the
political and ideological spectrum in the societies of the South of the
Mediterranean. This newly emerged tactic posed important questions on
whether their attention was due to an orientalist symptom or a real revival
or reemergence of anarchism in the South of the Mediterranean. There
were some questions that needed to be answered: Was there an ideology
as such of anarchism in the South of the Mediterranean? Or as Joshua
Stephens underlined, was it an “Orientalist Siren”? Was it momentum for
anarchism, and if so, how was this political philosophy understood and
experienced?
The practice of anarchism as prefigurative politics has influenced a
whole generation of young activists and has expressed the most profound
libertarian desire of Southern Mediterranean societies. If the Islamist
agenda or a supposed “authoritarianism”, endemic to the Arab soci-
eties, marked the sociopolitical agenda until 2011, the emergence of the
Black Bloc and other anarchist groups and antiauthoritarian repertoires
of collective actions from Morocco to Palestine going through Algeria,
Tunisia, Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Palestine and Jordan, have changed the
focus and have attracted a great deal of interest in academic, journalist and
activist spheres. Despite all of that, and despite the archival evidence of
the existence of anarchist movements, groups and thought in the South
of the Mediterranean since the end of the nineteenth century, as well as a
growing literature about this anti-authoritarian and transnational history,
the voices of these forgotten activists are still missing from the main refer-
ence books on the history of ideas and the history of anarchism. Why is
that the case?
1 TOWARD A HISTORY OF SOUTHERN MEDITERRANEAN ANARCHISM 3

The emergence of anarchism as a political philosophy and a self-


declared ideology and its history in the South of the Mediterranean is
deeply rooted in the creation of the first capitalist economies and their
relation with the economic peripheries. The first anarchists arrived in
North Africa throughout the colonial project, carrying with them their
emancipatory and civilizational claims. The need of specialized workers to
create and develop the industrial fabric of the European colonial project
attracted a great deal of Spanish, Italian, Greek and French workers to the
Southern shore at the end of the nineteenth century. These workers and
political exiles who were mostly but not exclusively men helped spread
and disseminate anarchist and socialist propaganda from the First Inter-
national. In Tunisia and Egypt, this political philosophy emerged with the
settlement of activist and workers from Italy and Greece in the coastal
and industrial cities (Khuri-Makdisi 2010; Gorman 2010). In Algeria,
Republican Spanish political exiles in collaboration with French anarchists
were instrumental in the creation of a local and anti-colonial Algerian
movement (Porter 2011). In Lebanon and Syria, Arabic publications and
transregional editorials echoed the importance of the events related to
anarchism and libertarian thought in the Mediterranean societies and
Latin America. ‘Propaganda by the deed’ was not the only repertoire
used by these activists. Their propaganda mostly focused on dissemi-
nating the ‘idea’ through ‘propaganda by the word’ by founding journals,
educational clubs and intuitions such as the L’Università Popolare Libera
in 1901, especially important in promoting the educational program of
Francisco Ferrer’s Escuela Moderna (Gorman 2005).
Despite the pioneering work these activists achieved in developing
anarchist political thought in the Arabic speaking countries, historians
have not paid the necessary attention to this ideological and social
phenomenon. An overview of anti-authoritarian literature and anarchist
thought in the South of the Mediterranean shows the lack of studies that
analyze and reconstruct these narratives, but moreover, the reluctance of
many European activists to name them as such.
Where is it possible to find the traces of this history? How can we
reconstruct the history of the anti-authoritarian experiences and cultural
expressions in the South of the Mediterranean? How have these anar-
chisms been formulated? What characteristics do they share with other
libertarian experiences? Why are there hardly any studies on anarchism in
non-Western contexts and, specifically, in Arab-speaking contexts, despite
their trans-Mediterranean connections? Does this historiographical gap
respond to exclusive historical factors?
4 L. GALIÁN

I ask these and other questions in this book. Its aspiration is twofold:
to critically review the anti-authoritarian geographies in the South of the
Mediterranean, from Morocco to Palestine and to rethink the postcolo-
nial condition of emancipatory projects such as anarchism, which is still
often enunciated from a white-privilege hetero-normative epistemic posi-
tion that reproduces colonial power relations. This brings us to the book’s
main imperative: decolonizing anarchism.
The unfinished decolonization of anarchism has led the anarchist canon
to ignore non-Western anti-authoritarian and anarchist narratives, which
are not always and not only enunciated as a self-declared ideology. Hence,
the libertarian, anti-authoritarian and decentralized emancipation projects
that arise in the Arab societies of the South of the Mediterranean have not
been integrated into most histories of anarchism, despite sharing many
similarities with the European political philosophy. The anti-authoritarian
experiences presented in the book, that range from 1860 to 2019 are
multiple, diverse in form and content and glocal , that is, they are at
the same time global and local. All of them emphasize form as political
praxis and in many cases have been and are the alternative to Marxism,
and they are built in rhizomatic networks. These projects become polit-
ical proposals to rethink the main thesis of the book: Anarchism is still
pertinent but it needs to be decolonized.

What We Talk About When


We Talk About Anarchism?
Anarchism means different things for different people. It might be defined
as a body of shared ideas and experiences. Among these shared ideas and
experiences is the imperative to be cognizant of our collective and indi-
vidual privileges and the power relations that we establish in every aspect
of our lives. Anarchism is a way of living with oneself and with others. It
is, as Alfredo Bonanno stated in his famous book The Anarchist Tension
(1996, p. 4) “a state we must play, day after day”. Anarchism cannot be
defined for once and for all. It is not definitive and is being continuously
defined by those who are part of its philosophy.
What is and what is not anarchism? What does it mean to be an anar-
chist and why? These questions have been answered variously by different
people along its history, sometimes with contradictory and opposite
answers. Those definitions have varied along its history, the geograph-
ical and socio-political position of those who define it as well as their
1 TOWARD A HISTORY OF SOUTHERN MEDITERRANEAN ANARCHISM 5

social context. It can be said that anarchism has as many interpretations


as anarchists exists. “Anarchists are those who work to further the cause
of anarchism” assures researcher Ruth Kina (2005, p. 4).
Let’s take three definitions from anarchists from different times and
geographical locations in order to see how they emphasize different
aspects of anarchism:
The first one, Emma Goldman (1868–1940), one of the few anarchist
women who have been generally recognized as part of classical anarchist
history, describes anarchism in her book Anarchism and Other Essays
(1911) as:

The philosophy of a new social order based of liberty unrestricted by man-


made law; the theory that all forms of government rest on violence, and
are therefore wrong and harmful, as well as unnecessary. (Goldman 1911,
p. 56)

Then she continues:

The new social order rests, of course, on the materialistic basis of life; but
while all Anarchists agree that the main evil today is an economic one, they
maintain that the solution of that evil can be brought about only through
the consideration of every phase of life, -individual, as well as the collective;
the internal, as well as the external phases. (Goldman 1911, p. 56)

As we can see from the quotations, Goldman considers that states and
governments are institutions based on the use of violence to maintain
an economic order, the capitalist one. Following this analysis, Goldman
proposes a “new social order”, that of anarchism, which means individual
and collective liberation from the yoke of oppression. Goldman’s anti-
statist and anti-capitalist vision greatly differs from the North American
second-generation feminist Peggy Kornegger (1975) when she declares
that:

The radical feminist perspective is almost pure anarchism. The basic theory
postulates the nuclear family as the basis for all authoritarian systems. The
lesson the child learns, from father to teacher to boss to God, is to OBEY
the great anonymous voice of Authority. To graduate from childhood to
adulthood is to become a full-fledged automaton, incapable of questioning
or even thinking clearly. We pass into middle-America, believing everything
