Josiah Warren:the incompleat anarchist
Josiah warren has been presented to the world by his various interpreters as an individualist anarchist and as the first American anarchist. His biographer, W. Bailie, entitled his work, Josiah Warren: The First American Anarchist (1906). Two recent anthologies of anarchist writings, I. L. Horowitz’ The Anarchists (1964) and L. I. Krimerman and Lewis Perry’s Patterns of Anarchy (1966), each have selections from Warren. George Woodcock in his survey of anarchism devotes several paragraphs to Warren and writes: “… he developed the theory of sovereignty of the individual which has led to his being regarded, rightly, I think, as the first American anarchist” (1962, p. 456).
