Errico Malatesta
Errico Malatesta (4 December 1853 – 22 July 1932) was an Italian
anarchist propagandist, theorist and
revolutionary socialist. He edited several radical newspapers and spent much of his life exiled and imprisoned, having been jailed and expelled from Italy, Britain, France, and Switzerland. Originally a supporter of insurrectionary
propaganda by deed, Malatesta later advocated for
syndicalism. His exiles included five years in Europe and 12 years in Argentina. Malatesta participated in actions including an 1895 Spanish revolt and a Belgian general strike. He toured the United States, giving lectures and founding the influential anarchist journal ''La Questione Sociale''. After
World War I, he returned to Italy where his ''
Umanità Nova'' had some popularity before its closure under the rise of
Mussolini.
