University of Sydney October 2011 Acknowledgements My thanks go firstly to Dr Margarite Poulos for her guidance and gentle pressure to get on with the job. Thanks too to Dr Frances Clarke and Dr John Gagné, whose seminars showed me how thrilling History can be. My still startled gratitude to Associate Professor Dirk Moses, who moved to Florence and so kindly bestowed many of his precious German texts onto me. They have found a good home on my bookshelf and in my bibliography. My love to Joseph, whose staggering confidence in me inspired me to work harder than was my inclination. I am grateful to Mala and Josh for their heartening Honours solidarity. Matthew and Lucy’s alternate offerings of comfort and critique were also very welcome. Finally, I must thank my mother Victoria Black and my father Christopher Ryan for not asking too many questions but being prepared to sit down with a red pen and a draft when I requested it. I hope they have not taken my writing on the bourgeois family to heart. A note on translation: All translations from German are my own.

It is meant to disseminate what we have deemed important information throughout our studies. This information may be used as a tool for all people, women in particular, who wish to dismantle the oppressions they face externally, and within their own lives. We are two men and one woman attempting to grasp at how we can deconstruct the patriarchal foundations upon which we perceive an unjust society has been built. We hope that at least some component of this work will be found useful to a variety of readers. This Zine is meant to be an introduction into anarcha-feminism, its origins, applications, and potentials. Buen provecho! We acknowledge that anarcha-feminism has historically been a western theory; thus, unfortunately, much of this ziners content reflects this limitation. However, we have included some information and analysis on worldwide anarcha-feminists as well as global women's struggles which don't necessarily identify as anarchist.

  • Why Nothing Happens
    Can Porn Set Us Free? A speech to the Sydney Writers Festival May 25th 2003 Clive Hamilton1 In Growth Fetish I argue that it has become apparent that the liberation movements of the sixties and seventies – the sexual revolution, the counter-culture, the women’s movement and the civil rights movement – have had some unforeseen and regrettable consequences. Contrary to the dreams of the young people of that era, the liberation movements did not create a society of free individuals in which each of us, released from the shackles of social conservatism, could find our true selves. While the goals were noble, the effect has been to open up to the marketers areas of social life from which the forces of commerce had previously been excluded. In a strong sense, the liberation movements of that era did the ground work for the neoliberal economic revolution of the eighties and nineties. It seems to me that the libertarian-left continues to invest so much in the freedoms won in the sixties and seventies that it has lost its capacity for discernment, an ability to recognise the social limits of individual freedoms. The ideas of the libertarian-left have become a reactionary force, for they have substituted an uncritical defence of the freedoms won in an earlier era for a real politics of social change. I’d like to develop this argument with respect to the perennial question of sex, and in particular the commodification of sexuality and what I call the pornographication of everyday life. This is a fitting topic for this Writers Festival not least because one of the overseas literary stars is Catherine Millet, author of the best-selling memoir The Sexual Life of Catherine M.

THE TENSIONS BETWEEN FEMINISM AND LIBERTARIANISM: A FOCUS ON PROSTITUTION NAHID SOROOSHYARI* INTRODUCTION This Note explores the tensions between feminism and libertarianism. In practice, feminism and libertarianism align on several issues. Historically, feminists and libertarians fought together to abolish legal barriers to women's participation in the economy and in the political system.' Currently, feminists and libertarians align on the issues of abortion and birth control.2 Any overlap between the two philosophies is, however, shallow. For feminists, patriarchy is the enemy, and it exists today despite the legal equality of women.3 For libertarians, the state is the enemy, and institutional harm to women only exists in the government- sanctioned oppression of women.4 Now that there are no legally- sanctioned barriers to women's participation in economic and political life,5 but still inequality between the genders,6 the tension between feminism and libertarianism is illuminated.

Libertarian socialists believe in converting present-day private productive property into the commons or public goods, while retaining respect for personal property[5]. Libertarian socialism is opposed to coercive forms of social organization. It promotes free association in place of government and opposes the social relations of capitalism, such as wage labor.[6] The term libertarian socialism is used by some socialists to differentiate their philosophy from state socialism[7][8] or by some as a synonym for left anarchism.[1][2][9] Adherents of libertarian socialism assert that a society based on freedom and equality can be achieved through abolishing authoritarian institutions that control certain means of production and subordinate the majority to an owning class or political and economic elite.[10] Libertarian socialism also constitutes a tendency of thought that

  • Anarcho-Feminism in Late Victorian and Edwardian Britain, 1880±1914
    IRSH 47 (2002), pp. 1±31 DOI: 10.1017/S0020859002000463 # 2002 Internationaal Instituut voor Sociale Geschiedenis Anarcho-Feminism in late Victorian and Edwardian Britain, 1880±1914 Matthew Thomas Summary: This article seeks to interpret the synthesis between anarchism and feminism as developed by a group of late nineteenth and early twentieth-century British women. It will demonstrate that the woman who embraced anarchism made a clear contribution to the growth of feminism. They offered a distinctive analysis of the reasons for female oppression, whether it was within the economic sphere or within marriage. The anarcho-feminists maintained that if an egalitarian society was ever to be built, differences in roles ± whether in sexual relationships, childcare, political life or work ± had to be based on capacity and preference, not gender. By combining these questions they developed a feminism that was all embracing at a time when the struggle for the vote was becoming the main question for women. Despite its small size when compared with socialist organizations like the Social Democratic Federation (SDF) and the Independent Labour Party (ILP), British anarchism exhibited great diversity, harbouring different ideological tendencies and organizational frameworks.1 Its supporters included communist revolutionaries, libertarian individualists, rural com- munitarians, and industrial unionists. At no time did the majority of these exponents unite under one organizational umbrella; they opted instead for small, independent units, many of whom had little contact with each other. British anarchism was not a political ``movement'' in the traditional sense of a closely regulated and coordinated body. Ideological, gender, ethnic, and class differences divided anarchists into multiform groups and disparate individuals, many of whom had little contact with each other.

  • Anarchist Women and the “Sex Question”
    1 Anarchist Women and the “Sex Question” The question of souls is old—we demand our bodies, now. We are tired of promises, God is deaf, and his church is our worst enemy. —Voltairine de Cleyre, “Sex Slavery,” 1890 I demand the independence of woman; her right to support herself; to live for herself; to love whomever she pleases, or as many as she pleases. I demand freedom for both sexes, freedom of action, freedom in love and freedom in motherhood. —Emma Goldman, “Marriage,” 1897 he Sex Question,” also known as “The Woman Question,” “Timplies a sense of epistemic uncertainty about the nature of womanhood, or the “proper” place of women in society. Introduced in Europe and debated throughout late nineteenth- and early twentieth- century America, the question was part of an international dialogue in response to the social unrest that was evident among a growing num- ber of women who began to challenge the notion that their sphere of influence was “naturally” limited to the roles of sweetheart, wife, and mother. Far from being singular in focus, the sex question pointed to an array of questions about whether (or to what extent) the bodies women occupy should delineate their rights and participation in public life, including questions about voting rights, access to higher education and professional employment, and the freedom to make choices about interpersonal relationships, marriage, and childbirth independently of the influence of men. Embedded within a dialectical discourse of 1 © 2016 State University of New York Press, Albany 2 TONGUE OF FIRE femininity and masculinity, these debates, in turn, reinforced the nature of manhood and masculine roles.

All rights reserved 0191-6599/94 $7.00+ 0.00 MARX, ENGELS, AND THE ABOLITION OF THE FAMILY - RICHARD WEIKART* 'It is a peculiar fact' stated Engels a few months after Marx died, 'that with every great revolutionary movement the question of 'free love' comes to the foreground'.' By the mid- to late-nineteenth century it was clear to advocates and opponents alike that many socialists shared a propensity to reject the institution of the family in favour of 'free love', if not in practice, at least as an ideal. The Prussian and German Reich governments tried to muzzle the socialist threat to the family by drafting legislation in 1849,1874,1876 and 1894, outlawing, among other things, assaults on the family.2 However, the Anti-Socialist Law that Bismarck managed to pass in 1878 contained no mention of the family. The Utopian Socialists Charles Fourier and Robert Owen had preceded Marx and Engels in their rejection of traditional family relationships, and many nineteenth-century leftists followed their cue. The most famous political leader of the German socialists, August Bebel—though he was a staunch Marxist— wrote his immensely popular book, Die Frau und der Sozialismus, under the influence of Fourier's ideas. However, not all socialists in the nineteenth century were anti-family. Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, who wielded great influence in French socialist and anarchist circles, wanted to retain the family institution, which he loved and revered.

    David M. Robinson Copyright ©1997 David M. Robinson I Every spirit builds itself a house; and beyond its house, a world; and beyond its world, a heaven. Know then, that the world exists for you. For you the phenomenon is perfect. What we are, that only can we see. All that Adam had, all that Caesar could, you have and can do. Adam called his house, heaven and earth; Caesar called his house, Rome; you perhaps call yours a cobbler's trade; a hundred acres of ploughed land; or a scholar's garret. Yet line for line and point for point, your dominion is as great as theirs, though without fine names. Build, therefore, your own world. (CW 1:45). The term "utopian" can be a multifarious and slippery one in the history of ideas, but by most standards, the above charge from Ralph Waldo Emerson expresses a utopian aspiration. We find it near the end of his 1836 book Nature, a text that unmistakably signaled a shift in the intellectual climate of nineteenth-century America. But like most everything that Emerson wrote, the passage is productively ambiguous. In the first place it is a message of courage and empowerment, offering a young and alienated readership, Emerson's primary and seemingly natural audience, a view of the world as flexible and open, tractable to their desire to mold and remake it. Emerson is in this sense playing the role that secured his importance in nineteenth-century American culture, and continues in some sense today, that of the supportive and inspiriting advocate of individual integrity and self-direction, a crucial voice of courage to many who have struggled with religious or economic domination, or who have found the confines of the socially sanctioned identities and vocations in American culture too narrow and stultifying.
