Focusing on the life of Jean Grave, this biography delves into his significant contributions to the anarchist communist movement from the Paris Commune to the eve of World War II. It highlights key historical moments, including the movement's "heroic period," the rise of syndicalism, and the impact of World War I. The narrative examines Grave's role as a "sedentary transnationalist," revealing the complexities of his influence within a global anarchist network while emphasizing the importance of print culture in spreading ideas.

This edited volume reassesses the ongoing transnational turn in anarchist and syndicalist studies. It presents and extends up-to-date research into several dynamic historiographic fields, and especially the history of the anarchist and syndicalist movements and the notions of transnational militancy and informal political networks. Contributors include Davide Turcato, Ruth Kinna, Isabelle Felici, Kenyon Zimmer, Pietro Di Paola, Raymond Craib, Nino K hnis, and Martin Baxmeyer.
