« Depuis longtemps, j'ai été frappé de voir que le déroulement normal des grèves comporte un important cortège de violences ; quelques savants sociologues cherchent à se dissimuler un phénomène que remarque toute personne qui consent à regarder ce qui se passe autour d'elle. Le syndicalisme révolutionnaire entretient l'esprit gréviste dans les masses et ne prospère que là où se sont produites des grèves notables, menées avec violence. Le socialisme tend à apparaître, de plus en plus, comme une théorie du syndicalisme révolutionnaire, - ou, encore, comme une philosophie de l'histoire moderne en tant que celle-ci est sous l'influence de ce syndicalisme. Il résulte de ces données incontestables que, pour raisonner sérieusement sur le socialisme, il faut avant tout se préoccuper de chercher quel est le rôle qui appartient à la violence dans les rapports sociaux actuels. Je ne crois pas que cette question ait été encore abordée avec le soin qu'elle comporte ; j'espère que ces réflexions conduiront quelques penseurs à examiner de près les problèmes relatifs à la violence prolétarienne » G.S

For to M. Sorel violence is good, both as an end and as a means: violence is at once the condition and the essence of the higher morality or "the sublime in ethics." This sublimation of violence as a kind of moral tonic and renewer of "lost energies" raises questions which would carry us rather far afield into the domains of psychology and ethics, of religion and philosophy: and this is hardly the occasion for such an attractive excursion. What is peculiar to M. Sorel is the new or at any rate rather unfamiliar setting which he gives to the idea of violence-the spiritual affinities, for instance, which he finds between proletarian violence and the philosophy both of Proudhon and of Bergson. But M. Sorel is equally notable for the violence he himself does to analogies. It may be said, indeed, of him what he himself says in a particular context of Renan to such an extent indeed that an element of truth becomes distorted into an untruth, into a falsity of extremes. On the other hand, the discerning reader will be able to sift the grain from the chaff, and may then that M. Sorel's polemic against "moderation" and "compromise," "arbitration" and "opportunism," has more than a negative value; that his argument, stripped of the extravagance of its trappings, has a really arresting and illuminating quality; and that in any cas it has the rare and supreme merit of forcing the reader to think-and to think furiously. His book is at once original and thought-provoking. Sidney Ball, The Economic Journal, Vol. 26, No. 103 (Sep., 1916), pp. 337-341

Reflections on Violence was an explosive and controversial book in 1906, and it remains so today. In it, Georges Sorel rejects the decadence of bourgeois democracy and calls for a heroic vitalism of the working class, to be brought about by any means necessary, including violence. Sorel chastises the republicanism and parliamentary socialism of his day, but his insights apply to any vanguardist movement, making him of interest beyond the left, and a precursor to fascism. Drawing on Bergson, Renan, Vico, and others, Sorel underlines myth as the driving force behind political action, and offers the myth of the general strike as the way forward for the syndicalist movement. Sorel's insistence on the myth of the general strike can easily be transposed on to any group's quest for self-determination, and so his critiques of politicians, of utopians, and of moderates are as relevant today as they were a century ago. In the Imperium Press edition, the original translator's preface, which defends Sorel's purging of democracy from socialism, has been restored, along with two of Sorel's essays not included in the original Hulme translation. This edition also includes a foreword by Thomas777 and an essay on the historical context in which Sorel was writing

The prophet of social decadence, the theorist of violence and advocate of the general strike, the critic who stood Marx on his head, Georges Sorel was one of the foremost writers of this century to write extensively on the great importance of the moral aspects of social movements. His reconstruction of socialist ethics established him as one of the most remarkable critics of Marxist thought, and his writings in many aspects anticipated contemporary interpretations. From Georges Sorel, the first of two volumes of Sorel's work, presents his major contributions to social thought--articles on Marxism, religion, syndicalism, social myths, the philosophy of history and science, as well as a large and newly translated segment of "Reflections on Violence." In his introduction, John Stanley disputes the frequently encountered view of Sorel as a reactionary or extreme rightist, and emphasizes Sorel's attempt to provide Western society with a morality based on labor, struggle, and family life. Contents: Editor's Introduction; The Trial of Socrates: The Greek Oligarchy; The Socialist Future of the Syndicates; The Ethics of Socialism; Critical Essays on Marxism: Necessity and Fatalism in Marxism, Is There a Utopia in Marxism, Polemics for the Interpretation of Marxism; The Illusions of Progress: First Ideologies of Progress; Reflections on Violence: Letter to Daniel Halevy, The Proletarian Strike, The Morality of the Producers; Materials for a Theory of the Proletariat: Introduction, The Organization of Democracy; The Utility of Pragmatism: On the Origin of Truth, A Critique of Creative Evolution; A Sorel Bibliography.

Marking the centenary of Walter Benjamin's immensely influential essay, "Toward the Critique of Violence," this critical edition presents readers with an altogether new, fully annotated translation of a work that is widely recognized as a classic of modern political theory. The volume includes twenty-one notes and fragments by Benjamin along with passages from all of the contemporaneous texts to which his essay refers. Readers thus encounter for the first time in English provocative arguments about law and violence advanced by Hermann Cohen, Kurt Hiller, Erich Unger, and Emil Lederer. A new translation of selections from Georges Sorel's Reflections on Violence further illuminates Benjamin's critical program. The volume also includes, for the first time in any language, a bibliography Benjamin drafted for the expansion of the essay and the development of a corresponding philosophy of law. An extensive introduction and afterword provide additional context. With its challenging argument concerning violence, law, and justice—which addresses such topical matters as police violence, the death penalty, and the ambiguous force of religion—Benjamin's work is as important today as it was upon its publication in Weimar Germany a century ago.
