Colin Ward (14 August 1924 – 11 February 2010) was a British anarchist writer. He has been called "one of the greatest anarchist thinkers of the past half century, and a pioneering social historian." 〔(''Appreciation of the Chuckling Anarchist'', Roman Krznaric, 27 February 2010 )〕 ==Life== Ward was born in Wanstead, Essex. He became an anarchist while in the British Army during World War II. As a subscriber to ''War Commentary'', the war-time equivalent of ''Freedom'', he was called in 1945 from Orkney, where he was serving, to give evidence at the London trial of the editors for publishing an article allegedly intended to seduce soldiers from their duty or allegiance. Ward robustly repudiated any seduction, but the three editors (Philip Sansom, Vernon Richards and John Hewetson) were convicted and sentenced to nine months imprisonment. He was an editor of the British anarchist newspaper ''Freedom'' from 1947 to 1960, and the founder and editor of the monthly anarchist journal ''Anarchy'' from 1961 to 1970.〔(Anglia Ruskin University )〕 From 1952 to 1961, Ward worked as an architect. In 1971, he became the Education Officer for the Town and Country Planning Association. He published widely on education, architecture and town planning. His most influential book was ''The Child In The City'' (1978), about children's street culture. From 1995-6, Ward was Centennial Professor of Housing and Social Policy at the London School of Economics.〔http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/comment/obituaries/article7045467.ece〕 In 2001, Ward was made an Honorary Doctor of Philosophy at Anglia Ruskin University.〔(Anglia Ruskin University, profile )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Colin Ward」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
