Understanding Anarchism

What are the founding principles of anarchism? What links the philosophy of Proudhon, who introduced the notion to France in 1840, to the act of Italian Sante Geronimo Caserio, who assassinated President Sadi Carnot in 1894?

This introduction to anarchism allows us to understand the issues and tensions that run through this movement, and to grasp why it could emerge today as a response to the moral and economic crisis of contemporary societies.
