-On [[August 27]], Rocker with his wife emigrated to New York. There they were reunited with Fermin who had stayed there after accompanying his father on his 1929 lecture tour in the US. The Rocker family moved to live with a sister of Witkop's in [[Towanda]], [[Pennsylvania]] where many families with progressive or libertarian socialist views lived. In October, Rocker toured the US and Canada speaking about racism, fascism, dictatorship, socialism in English, Yiddish, and German.  He found many of his Jewish comrades from London, who had since emigrated to America, and became a regular writer for ''[[Freie Arbeiter Stimme]]'', a Jewish anarchist newspaper. Back in Towanda in the Summer of 1934, Rocker started work on an autobiography, but news of Erich MÃ¼hsam's death led him to halt his work. He was working on ''Nationalism and Culture'', when the [[Spanish Civil War]] broke out in July 1936 instilling great optimism in Rocker. He published a pamphlet ''The Truth about Spain'' and contributed to ''[[The Spanish Revolution]]'', a special fortnightly newspaper published by American anarchists to report on the events in Spain. In 1937, he wrote ''The Tragedy of Spain'', which analyzed the events in greater detail. In September 1937, Rocker and Witkop moved to the libertarian commune [[Lake Mohegan, New York|Mohegan]] Colony about {{convert|50|mi|km}} from New York City.<ref>Vallance 1973, pg. 91-93 and Reichert 1976, pg. 476, 483</ref>

 In 1937, ''Nationalism and Culture'', which he had started work on around 1925, was finally published with the help of anarchists from Chicago Rocker had met in 1933. A Spanish edition was released in three volumes in [[Barcelona]], the stronghold of the Spanish anarchists. It would be his best-known work.<ref>Rothfels 1951, pg. 839.</ref> In the book, Rocker traces the origins of the state back to religion claiming "that all politics is in the last instance religion": both enslave their very creator, man; both claim to be the source of cultural progress. He aims to prove the claim that culture and power are essentially antagonistic concepts. He applies this model to human history, analyzing the [[Middle Ages]], the [[Renaissance]], [[Age of Enlightenment|Enlightenment]], and modern capitalist society, and to the history of the socialist movement. He concludes by advocating a "new humanitarian socialism".
-In 1938, Rocker published a history of anarchist thought, which he traced all the way back to ancient times, under the name ''Anarcho-Syndicalism''. A modified version of the essay would be published in the Philosophical Library series ''European Ideologies'' under the name ''Anarchism and Anarcho-Syndicalism'' in 1949.<ref>Vallance 1973, pg. 93.</ref>
