Émile Pouget (French: [emil puʒɛ]; 12 October 1860 – 21 July 1931) was a French journalist, pamphleteer and trade unionist. His combination of anarchist political theory and revolutionary syndicalist tactics has led several authors to identify Pouget as an early anarcho-syndicalist.An iconic pamphleteer, his newspaper Le Père peinard represented a new direction in anarchist journalism, employing vernacular and urban slang. Pouget was vice-secretary of the General Confederation of Labour from 1901 to 1908. He was the first to promote the term "sabotage" in its current meaning. Source: Wikipedia (en)
