"Anarchy and Anarchists" by Michael J. Schaack is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work delves into the events and ideologies surrounding the anarchist movement in the United States and Europe, particularly focusing on the Chicago Haymarket conspiracy and the complex social revolutions tied to figures like Karl Marx and Pierre Proudhon. The author, who served as a Captain of Police, aims to provide an impartial history of anarchy, exploring its roots and ramifications within the context of broader societal changes. At the start of the text, Schaack sets the scene by detailing the historical foundations of anarchism, tracing its origins back to various European contexts, including the French Revolution and the oppressive conditions faced by workers. He discusses key figures in the movement, such as Babeuf, Cabet, and Marx, highlighting the emergence of radical doctrines that fueled unrest. The author emphasizes the dangerous consequences of these ideologies, which culminated in the tragic events of May 4, 1886, in Chicago, where a bomb explosion during a labor rally left several policemen dead. Schaack establishes that understanding these historical acts is crucial for grasping the motivations behind the anarchist movements that devastated the social fabric of the time.
