The League of Peace and Freedom

Bacunan and his anarchists seceded from the international workingmen's association in 18 68. They formed a group called the alliance of socialist democracy, which petitioned to affiliate it with the geneva section of the international. But they found themselves outnumbered by more tepid political liberals and democrats who were not interested in letting this peace project be turned into a vehicle for social revolution. Next week we turn to the actual philosophy and programmes of baunan's anarcho collectivism.
