Kenyon Zimmer explores why these migrants turned to anarchism, and how their adoption of its ideology shaped their identities, experiences, and actions. Zimmer focuses on Italians and Eastern European Jews in San Francisco, New York City, and Paterson, New Jersey. Tracing the movement's changing fortunes from the pre-World War I era through the Spanish Civil War, Zimmer argues that anarchists, opposed to both American and Old World nationalism, severed all attachments to their nations of origin but also resisted assimilation into their host society. Their radical cosmopolitan outlook and identity instead embraced diversity and extended solidarity across national, ethnic, and racial divides. Though ultimately unable to withstand the onslaught of Americanism and other nationalisms, the anarchist movement nonetheless provided a shining example of a transnational collective identity delinked from the nation-state and racial hierarchies. 410 0$aWorking class in American history. 606 $aAnarchism$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aJewish anarchists$zUnited States 606 $aItalian Americans$xHistory 606 $aImmigrants$zUnited States 607 $aFo?renta staterna 607 $aUnited States$2fast 607 $aUSA$2gnd 607 $aEtats-Unis$2rero 608 $aHistory.$2fast 615 0$aAnarchism$xHistory 615 0$aJewish anarchists 615 0$aItalian Americans$xHistory. 615 0$aImmigrants 676 $a335.830973 700 $aZimmer$b Kenyon$01205578 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820386303321 996 $aImmigrants against the state$94111144 997 $aUNINA
