The Anarchist Cookbook - Paperback

by Keith McHenry (Author), Chaz Bufe (Author), Hedges Chris (Introduction by)

From the cofounder of Food Not Bombs, an action-oriented guide to anarchism, social change, and vegan cooking

Unlike the original Anarchist Cookbook, which contained instructions for the manufacture of explosives, this version is both a cookbook in the literal sense and also a "cookbook" of recipes for social and political change. The coffee-table-sized book is divided into three sections: a theoretical section explaining what anarchism is and what it isn't; information on organizational principles and tactics for social and political change; and finally, numerous tasty vegan recipes from one of the cofounders of the international Food Not Bombs movement.
