Black Flag issue #226
tags:
The relaunched Black Flag came out in December 2007, aiming to be a home for non-sectarian discussion across the anarchist movement and looking to reach out beyond to anyone involved in class struggle. As a first effort, this issue focussed strongly on historical aspects of anarchism, while subsequent issues have published a far greater amount of contemporary work. Below is the full contents listings for the magazine, which is attached as a PDF file.
