Paul was always ready to meet, associate, and scrimmage with just about any of the more (or occasionally less) interesting and promising elements of the milieu. As an anarchist, he was riotously post-left, anti-work, and anti-civ, but at the same time a card-carrying member of the now staid-to-the-point-of-conservatism IWW! So it shouldn't be surprising that he unabashedly celebrates eclecticism as "A virtue,... desired and cultivated, a political...

What impels someone to abandon middle-class privilege for the sake of revolution? In the 1960s, Meinhof began to see the world in increasingly stark terms: the United States was emerging as an unstoppable superpower, massacring a tiny country overseas despite increasingly popular dissent at home; and Germany appeared to be run by former Nazis. Never before translated into English, Meinhof's writings show a woman increasingly engaged in the major political...

During the second half of the Twentieth Century, the ideas of leading anarchist thinkers such as Proudhon, Bakunin, and Kropotkin seemed destined to fade into history.

Anarchist axioms appear in contemporary debates on neoliberalism and ecology. Websites passing on anarchism's radical principles proliferate in...

17) L'anarchie
Author
Description
« Le discours solidaire des puissants n'est qu'un leurre, puisqu'en réalité ils comptent bien davantage sur l'égoïsme et l'isolement des individus pour asseoir leur pouvoir. Le xxe siècle a été l'occasion de faire croire aux populations du monde, et en premier lieu à celles des pays industrialisés, que le "chacun pour soi" était la voie unique de la réussite. Le capitalisme [...] a conduit à des aberrations inédites en matière d'inégalités...

The argument of this book is that an anarchist society, a society, which organizes itself without authority, is always in existence, like a seed beneath the snow, buried under the weight of the state and its bureaucracy, capitalism and its waste, privilege and its injustices, nationalism and its suicidal loyalties, religious differences and their superstitious separatism.
Anarchist ideas are so much at variance with ordinary political assumptions...
