Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anarchism and the Advent of Paris Dada is the first book-length study to interrogate the Paris Dadaists' complex and often contested position in the postwar groundswell of anarchoindividualism. Drawing on such surviving documentation as correspondence, criticism, periodicals, pamphlets, and manifestoes, this book argues that, contrary to received wisdom, Dada was driven by a vision of social change through radical cultural upheaval.
