Elements of Refusal
Publisher: CAL Press, 1999, 308pp, 2nd ed.
A new edition of Zerzan's first collection of essays, exploring alienation, and the resistance it has engendered. Elements of Refusal is regarded by many as the bible of anarcho-primativism, a spiritual call to dismantle domination and return to wilderness. In these technocratic, totalitarian times, Zerzan's profound critique of industrialism, capitalism, work and the machine itself is utterly life-changing and urgent.
