Saul Newman is senior lecturer in politics at Goldsmiths College, University of London.
Chapter 1 Foreword
Chapter 2 Introduction
Chapter 3 Marxism and the Problem of Power
Chapter 4 Anarchism
Chapter 5 Stirner and the Politics of Ego
Chapter 6 Foucault and the Geneology of Power
Chapter 7 The War Machine: Deleuze and Guattari
Chapter 8 Derrida and the Deconstruction of Authority
Chapter 9 Lack of the Outside/Outside of the Lack: (Mis)Reading Lacan
Chapter 10 Towards a Politics of Post-Anarchism
Newman seems to me to be right on target in seeing anarchism rather than Marxism as the proper jumping-off point for progressive political theory. I recommend the book highly to scholars of progressive thought.

This is an intriguing and ambitious addition to the now growing literature attempting to recuperate, or at least reappraise, the legacy of anarchism for the development of anti-authoritarian, post-Marxian, yet still radical politics. . . . [A] fascinating and well-written book.
