Yeah, I was thinking about adding that in but that takes me all the way back to the First International. This collection of Bakunin has a great introduction about the dispute between Marx and Bakunin during the first international, as well as some insight into Bakunin's bizarrely dogmatic approach to anarchism. It's sort of a mini-biography of him.
Another problem with explaining anarchism is the anarchists have just had less time to develop theoretically. Almost every major communist contributor has some revolution to back them up, whereas the anarchists basically have Catalonia and then some central/latin American stuff. And then a ton of theoretical writings.
But if anyone wants to learn more about anarchism and syndicalism, Bakunin and Kropotkin are good places to start on the theoretical end of things. Also Emma Goldman is a personal favorite of mine.
The problem with Catalonia and Chiapas/the Zapatistas is that there are a LOT of people. And I actually don't know if Zapata himself wrote a whole lot...
