So far this year we&#8217;ve released 14 new titles, 6 new versions of anarchist classics and reprinted a bunch of our better selling titles. The new titles include; The Romanian Right by Hirtsui Parai-Pana a look at the misery of Romanian politics. This inspired us to doa new version of Fredy Perlman&#8217;s The Continuing Appeal of Nationalism for which we came up with a classic looking new cover, featuring some Romanian fascist clerics. Then there is the self explanatory &#8220;I\u2019m an Anarchist because I\u2019ve been wronged, and I\u2019ve seen everything else fail&#8221; by the sorely missed Benjamin Zephaniah. It&#8217;s a snip at a quid and includes 4 short texts which leave one in no doubt about his political leaning. We did a two pocket book version of Kropotkin&#8217;s classic Conquest of Bread and kickstarted our new co-publishing venture with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rupturepress.org\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.rupturepress.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rupture Press<\/a> by releasing Can Degrowth Struggle by Alexander Dunlap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/activedistribution.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/New-Books-May-25.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1000\" height=\"557\" src=\"https:\/\/activedistribution.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/New-Books-May-25.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1382\" srcset=\"https:\/\/activedistribution.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/New-Books-May-25.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/activedistribution.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/New-Books-May-25-300x167.jpg 300w, https:\/\/activedistribution.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/New-Books-May-25-768x428.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We have two update booklets from Rojava the most recent one (pictured above) is an appraisal from the front line of the struggle&#8217;s history right up to the PKK ceasefire announcement. We finally got around to doing Roger Yates&#8217;s second book, Storming Heaven, a fun fiction from the Paris Commmune through the life of Arhur Rimbaud. New Times is the first ever English translation of a talk by Kropotkin given in Manchester in 1893 and only ever published previously in French. We have Iain Mckay to thank for the translation.
