The book of one of the key historians of the XX century. Eric Hobsbawm (1917-2012) is dedicated to the phenomenon of social banditry, in the classic form represented by the legends of Robin Hood. But it wasn't just in Sherwood Forest that "bandits" appeared, challenging the hierarchical power system, protectors of the poor and folk avengers, elusive thanks to the support of communities and rapidly overgrown with myths and legends. With almost fatal inevitability, such heroes are found on all continents and in all corners of the world, in certain historical conditions. About how and why this happens, and how to separate reality from folk legend, and is told in this book.
