Many Anarchist assassins who terrified the rulers of Europe and America from the 1880s to the 1920s shared one common aim: simply to change the world by undoing all established social modes and conventions (p. 109). There is no necessary relationship between Anarchism and violence, the majority of Anarchists have been admirable and peaceable individuals (p. 109). They could kill for freedom, and believe the killing had meaning (p. 110). Assassination attempts were proliferating (p. 111). Propaganda by the deed (p. 112).
