Morrison Isaac Swift (1856–1946), social theorist, organizer and activist. A prolific writer, speaker and pamphleteer, he wrote a number of books on social and political theory and several works of fiction. Regarded by some as an anarchist and by others as a liberal, Swift was an outspoken anti-imperialist, anti-capitalist and a tireless promoter of socialism and public ownership. He was anti-slavery and oppression, an advocate of social justice for the unemployed and the working poor and a champion of freedom for the individual.
