The chair in his closing remarks swept this aside, declaring bluntly that anarchy means chaos. It… read more »
Erect upon the barricade, sledgehammer in one hand, Das Kapital in the other, Red Flag whipping overhead, the classic figure of communist revolution wears overalls. Anarchism flies the Black Flag and repudiates all dictatorship, even that of the proletariat, but it, also, sees itself as a movement of the oppressed; the idea that those on… read more »
London: Calabria Press 1991. 70 pages. Portland: gwiep.net 2017. 168 pages. When did anarchism start? Where did it come from? Where is it going? Were the Gnostics anarchists? The foragers?

That is to say, we have now reached, in our account, that stage in the intellectual development of the individual where his further progress depends on his recognition of an independent, self-determined ideological domain – i.e. as a domain, realm or class… read more »
