Testo aggiuntivo
The editors of The Anarchical Society at 40 are to be much commended for ensuring a tight and tidy structure. Overview chapters bookend the collection, previewing and synthesising the themes. Part One repackages and reviews Bulls key arguments, enabling readers not familiar with the original work to engage with the rest of the essays.
