Harald,

I've had a similar sense about the  German autonomist tradition - partly
from reading critiques of it translated from Wildcat - but I lack any real
familiarity with the scene.

Can you (and others) expand a little on the comments above?

I understand that a German-language history of the movement - by Geronimo?
- is now on-line, although I don't have the URL to hand . . .
