This episode is a conversation with Frank Jacob (Nord University, Norway) about his forthcoming book 'Emma Goldman and the Russian Revolution:  From Admiration to Frustration,' which will be published with De Gruyter later this year (print ~November; Open Access digital ~December): https://www.degruyter.com/view/title/570450. 

We discuss Goldman's life, her intellectual contribution to the anarchist movement and her evolving views on the Russian Revolution. We finish by reflecting on what this episode can tell us in the present day and our hopes for a better world. 

For those with German, Frank's book '1917: Die Korrumpierte Revolution' is available Open Access here: https://www.buechner-verlag.de/buch/1917-die-korrumpierte-revolution/

Frank has written extensively on the history of revolution, the left and migration (amongst many other themes), much of which is available Open Access. See his CV here: https://nord.academia.edu/FrankJacob
