Description
In the new book by the well-known historian A. V. Shubin, the story is about the leader of a mass uprising movement, the anarchist Nestor Makhno. The life of โthe father,โ as he is called, is shown against a broad backdrop of events of the revolution and the Civil War in Russia and Ukraine. Before the reader passes a multitude of heroes: Lenin and Denikin, Stalin and Petliura, Siberians and Ukrainians, residents of the capitals and the deep countryside. By describing in detail the development of the Makhnovist movement, confirming his claims with references to documents from that turbulent era, the author also shows how the history of the country changed under the influence of the masses of people who decided to fight for freedom and social justice. Fighting off the Reds and the Whites while also influencing their politics, the Makhnovites and other insurgents discussed in the book began creating their own unusual society of self-government. They were defeated in an unequal struggle. But, retreating from Ukraine, Makhno continued to fight for his ideals in exile. As shown in the book, he exerted a significant influence on the development of the world anarchist movement, which soon would have to face fascism in Spain.
