	Berkman: Nestor Makhno
		Makhno's fame spread; he became the avenging angel of the lowly, and presently he was looked upon as the great liberator whose coming had been prophesied by Pugatchev in his dying moments.
		Makhno, however, assumed the fl flag of the Russian Anarchists as his emblem, and announced a definite program: autonomous communes of free peasants; the negation of all government, and complete self-determination based on the principle of labor.
		It is Makhno's custom upon taking a city or town to call the people together and announce to them that henceforth they are free to organize their lives as they think best for themselves.

	Reassessing Nestor Makhno
		In 1999 Alexander Skirda claimed that fifteen books had been published about Makhno in the previous decade, though he had to admit that ‘most of them lack rigour and are of limited interest to anyone conversant with the subject’.

		He disposes of such charges against Makhno as that he had declared ‘Russia needs neither posts nor telegraphs’ (a libel repeated by the British Trotskyist super-sect, the Socialist Labour League in the 1960s) and also claims as to his drunkenness and anti-semitism.
