520    In the nineteenth century anarchists were accused of 
       conspiracy by governments afraid of revolution, but in the
       current century various "conspiracy theories" suggest that
       anarchists are controlled by government itself. The 
       Illuminati were a network of intellectuals who argued for 
       self-government and against private property, yet the 
       public is now often told that they were (and are) the very
       group that controls governments and defends private 
       property around the world. Intervening in such 
       misinformation, Lagalisse works with primary and secondary
       sources in multiple languages to set straight the history 
       of the Left and illustrate the actual relationship between
       revolutionism, pantheistic occult philosophy, and the 
       clandestine fraternity. Exploring hidden correspondences 
       between anarchism, Renaissance magic, and New Age 
       movements, Lagalisse also advances critical scholarship 
       regarding leftist attachments to secular politics. 
       Inspired by anthropological fieldwork within today's 
       anarchist movements, her essay challenges anarchist 
       atheism insofar as it poses practical challenges for 
       coalition politics in today's world. Studying anarchism as
       a historical object, Occult Features of Anarchism also 
       shows how the development of leftist theory and practice 
       within clandestine masculine public spheres continues to 
       inform contemporary anarchist understandings of the 
       "political," in which men's oppression by the state 
       becomes the prototype for power in general. Readers behold
       how gender and religion become privatized in radical 
       counterculture, a historical process intimately linked to 
       the privatization of gender and religion by the modern 
       nation-state.
