The first in a two-volume series, this is by far the most in-depth history of the Red Army Faction ever made available in English. Volume 1 presents the manifestos and communiques issued by the RAF between 1970 and 1977. The three main manifestos - The Urban Guerilla Concept, Serve the People and Black September - are all included as are inportant interviews with Der Spiegel and Le Monde Diplpomatique.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The long-awaited Volume 2 of the first-ever English-language study of the Red Army Faction-West Germany's most notorious urban guerillas-covers the period immediately following the organization's near-total decimation in 1977. This work includes the details of the guerilla's operations, and its communiques and texts, from 1978 up until the 1984 offensive.This was a period of regrouping and reorientation for the RAF, with its previous focus on freeing its prisoners replaced by an anti-NATO orientation. This was in response to the emergence of a new radical youth movement in the Federal Republic, the Autonomen, and an attempt to renew its ties to the radical left. The possibilities and perils of an armed underground organization relating to the broader movement are examined, and the RAF's approach is contrasted to the more fluid and flexible practice of the Revolutionary Cells. At the same time, the history of the 2nd of June Movement (2JM), an eclectic guerilla group with its roots in West Berlin, is also evaluated, especially in light of the split that led to some 2JM members officially disbanding the organization and rallying to the RAF. Finally, the RAF's relationship to the East German Stasi is examined, as is the abortive attempt by West Germany's liberal intelligentsia to defuse the armed struggle during Gerhard Baum's tenure as Minister of the Interior.Dancing with Imperialism will be required reading for students of the First World guerilla, those with interest in the history of European protest movements, and all who wish to understand the challenges of revolutionary struggle. Shows how American imperialism worked hand in glove with the old pro-Nazi ruling class, shaping West Germany into an authoritarian anti-communist bulwark and launching pad for its aggression against Third World nations. This work recounts the opposition that emerged from intellectuals, communists, and independent leftists.
