This innovative collection explores the complex and multifaceted relationship between translation and anarchism, showing how the circulation of key authors and theories on a global scale has been underpinned by language and translation.Chapters feature case studies from across Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, and East Asia that highlight the relevance of multilingual exchanges in the growth of anarchist movements across geographic contexts as well as the decisive role of translation in their evolution and transformation. Through different disciplinary lenses – including history, sociology, philosophy, and comparative literature – the collection charts a relevant area of knowledge that has been clearly under‑researched and aims to foster cross‑disciplinary conversations between scholars in language and translation and social sciences. This book will be of interest to students and scholars in translation studies, political science, global literature, area studies, and social and cultural history.

Colonialism, Transnationalism, and Anarchism in the South of the Mediterranean invites us to revisit the necessity of decolonizing anarchism, which is enunciated, in many cases, from a privileged epistemic position reproducing neocolonial power relations.
