Report title in the original language

Nouvelle histoire de l'ultra-gauche

Description

This book explores the history, ideology and contemporary evolution of the ultra-left movement, examining the diverse groups and activist networks that operate under this broad label, including Black Blocs, anti-fascist collectives, autonomists and environmental activists. The author analyses the movement's ideological roots, organisational dynamics and strategies of mobilisation, with particular attention to its use of direct action and political violence. By tracing the historical development of the ultra-left and its role within contemporary social movements and protests, the book provides insight into the motivations, narratives and forms of collective action that characterise this heterogeneous political milieu.
