Both an extraordinary 1930s text on anarchism in its original sense of liberatory principles of equality and mutual support, and short chapters with all-age-appropriate illustrations and explanations of each principle. A gorgeous package with a new intro and original engravings will appeal to progressive parents and children alike. Here is a modern book for progressive readers of all ages that includes the prescient 1931 pamphlet, "Anarchy Explained to Children," by Jose Antonio Emmanuel writing under the pseudonym Max Bembo, a teacher and anarchist philanthropist who advocated for, among other things, freeing the education of children from the power of the Catholic Church. In the essay he offers to the children of working-class families a simple explanation of liberatory principles and how to put them into practice. Following the essay, each of the principles he proposes is explained very simply in a double page spread accompanied by an engraving, which conveys the beauty of the world that Emmanuel envisioned. The engravings were newly created for the 2017 Argentine edition of this book. Anarchy Explained to Children will appeal to parents and educators who are interested in sharing with a young reader the ideals of liberatory education, in which extremism and oppression are banished, and values &#8203;&#8203;of mutual support, equality between individuals, universal love and human solidarity are promoted. "Help- To those who hesitate, give them encouragement- to those who despair of seeing victory far away, give them courage. Mutual help is a sacred and universal duty."

«Que el libro sea tu mejor amigo, tu consejero, tu guía. Nunca sabremos bastante. Quien añade Ciencia, añade Anarquía. Investiga por ti mismo.» José Antonio Emmanuel Durante la II República, la promoción lectora tuvo un fuerte protagonismo dentro de las políticas culturales impulsadas desde el Estado, pero también desde los movimientos sociales. En este escenario, distintas editoriales e imprentas vinculadas al movimiento libertario desempeñaron un papel fundamental en la difusión de los nuevos discursos emancipadores. Este folleto, publicado en 1931 por la editorial barcelonesa B. A. I. fue escrito por el pedagogo José Antonio Emmanuel, un filántropo anarquista, impulsor, entre otros proyectos, de las escuelas para niñas y niños desamparados. En él trata de transmitir a las hijas e hijos de las familias obreras las ideas libertarias de la escuela racionalista y cómo llevarlas a la práctica.
