Description - The Anarchist Inquisition: Assassins, Activists, and Martyrs in Spain and France by Mark Bray

This repression sought to quash anarchist activities at the turn of the twentieth century. Mark Bray guides readers through this tumultuous era - from backroom meetings in Paris and torture chambers in Barcelona to international antiterrorist conferences in Rome and human rights demonstrations in Buenos Aires. Bray draws a vivid picture of the assassins, activists, torturers, and martyrs whose struggles set the stage for a previously unexamined era of human rights mobilization. Rather than assuming that human rights struggles and 'terrorism' are inherently contradictory forces, The Anarchist Inquisition analyzes how these two modern political phenomena worked in tandem to constitute dynamic campaigns against Spanish atrocities.
