Le traduzioni pubblicate in questo numero, se non altrimenti indicato, sono di Amedeo Bertolo. In copertina: Gustav Landauer (1870-1919) Quarta di copertina: Rose Pesotta (1896-1965), anarchica ebrea nata in Ucraina e poi emigrata nel 1913 negli USA, è stata una delle attiviste sindacali più importanti del Ladies’Garment Workers’Union. “L’immagine di copertina di questo bollettino – tutto dedicato alla tematica del convegno internazionale di studi anarchici ed ebrei, storia di un incontro – è di Gustav Landauer, ovvero di un personaggio ben noto dell’anarchismo internazionale. Una scelta dunque inconsueta per la copertina dei nostri bollettini che di norma ospita volti poco o nient’affatto noti. Si tratta in effetti di un omag- gio a questa figura di intellettuale e militante anarchico (la cui opera in Italia è peraltro pochissimo tradotta), di un riconoscimento dovu- to per la centralità delle sue riflessioni nella particolare tematica qui affrontata. Ma di lui poi in realtà non si parlerà in questo bollettino speciale, come non si parlerà di altri personaggi altrettanto significa- tivi come Erich Mühsam o Emma Goldman. Infatti, com’è nello stile e nei proponimenti del nostro bollettino, ci occuperemo di ‘storia minore’, cioè di storie, di personaggi ed even- ti ‘minori’o di aspetti ‘minori’di personaggi o eventi di rilievo o, ancora, di brevi sintesi, di piccole letture di grandi fatti e persone. Cercheremo, anche questa volta, non tanto di riempire (opera imma- ne ed enciclopedica) tutto il tessuto che c’è stato e c’è nella vita del 1145 movimento anarchico e dei movimenti libertari all’interno delle ‘lar- ghe maglie’(per lo più note o conoscibili altrove), quanto di dare un’idea di quella fitta trama di ‘piccole cose’poco note o pressoché ignote. E di suggerire ulteriori ricerche e letture, con materiale di supporto scarso e modesto ma rigoroso per quanto ci riesce. Non parleremo nemmeno di quella ‘seconda generazione’di anar- chici d’origine ebraica che ha così profondamente influenzato l’a- narchismo contemporaneo. Ci riferiamo a nomi come quelli notissi- mi di Noam Chomsky, Murray Bookchin, Paul Goodman, Julian Beck, Judith Malina o meno noti al di fuori del movimento anarchi- co come quelli di Paul Avrich o Sam Dolgoff, personaggi influenti la cui ascendenza ebraica è invece poco nota. Eppure sono tutti esemplari di una tipologia peculiare d’anarchico ebreo: in maggio- ranza figli di emigranti yiddish negli USA, spesso con scarse o nulle frequentazioni con l’originario ambiente yiddish, ma culturalmente americanizzati e divenuti intellettuali di fama internazionale. Una riflessione su questa generazione e sulla sua influenza andrà prima o poi affrontata per capire i percorsi intrapresi dall’anarchismo inter- nazionale. Al momento ci basta ricordarla per dire che la storia del- l’incontro tra anarchismo ed ebraismo non è solo un evento del pas- sato, ma è una storia che continua”.

Fink* Staat ist ein Verh¨altnis, ist eine Beziehung zwischen den Menschen, ist eine Art, wie die Menschen sich zu einander verhalten; und man zerst¨ort ihn, indem man andere Beziehungen eingeht, indem man sich anders zu einander verh¨alt.1 I. INTRODUCTION In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, municipal govern- ments in various US cities assumed responsibility for utilities and other ser- vices that previously had been privately operated. In the late twentieth century, prompted by fiscal crisis and encouraged by neo-liberal ideology, governments embraced the concept of “privatization,” shifting management and control over public services2 to private entities. Despite disagreements over the merits of privatization, both proponents and opponents accept the premise of a fundamental distinction between the “public” and “private” sectors, and between “state” and “market” institutions. A more skeptical view questions the analytical soundness and practical signifi- cance of these dichotomies. In this view, “privatization” is best understood as a rhetorical strategy, part of a broader neo-liberal ideology that relies on putative antinomies of “public” v. “private” and “state” v. “market” to obscure and rein- force social and economic power relations. While “privatization” may be an ideological definition of the situation, for public service workers the difference between employment in the “public” and “private” sectors can be real in its consequences3 for job security, compensa- * Associate Professor of Law, Elon University School of Law, Greensboro, North Carolina.

  • Practical Anarchism: the Makhnovist Movement in the Ukraine, 1917Â

    Practical Anarchism: the Makhnovist Movement in the Ukraine, 1917Â

    Phi Alpha Theta Pacific Northwest Conference, 8–10 April 2021 Zion G. Flores, Eastern Washington University, undergraduate student, “Practical Anarchism: The Makhnovist Movement in the Ukraine, 1917–1921” Abstract: Anarchism was one of the most prominent revolutionary left-wing movements in 19th and 20th century Europe, even contending as a philosophy with Marxism in many socialist circles. However, anarchism is generally believed today to be unrealistic and impractical as a political ideology. When looking at the modern historical record though, this does not always seem to be the case. I plan to explore whether the Makhnovist movement in the Ukraine from 1917-1921 provides an exception to the idea that anarchist movements are never viable. This movement, guided in large part by anarcho-communist Nestor Makhno, was one of the first to take modern anarchism from theory into practice. Although its existence was brief and its ability to fully realize anarchist ideals was limited by the circumstances of the time, the question must be asked: does the Makhnovist movement serve as an example of practical anarchism? Practical Anarchism The Makhnovist Movement in the Ukraine, 1917-1921 Zion G. Flores Eastern Washington University [email protected] Undergraduate 1 On March 2, 1917, Nestor Makhno took his first steps outside the Butyrki Prison of Moscow in over eight years. As Russia was being delivered from the chains of Tsardom, so too was Makhno delivered from his imprisonment as a part of the emancipation of prisoners during the February Revolution.1 His body emerged weak and weary from the debilitating conditions of his imprisonment.2 His commitment to anarchism, his rebellious spirit, and his fervor to emancipate toiling people from “slavery under the yoke of State and Capital” however had only grown stronger despite the seemingly hopeless prospects.
  • Cuban Anarchism Wexler, Alice

    Cuban Anarchism Wexler, Alice

    Anarchism was the driving force behind Cuba's revolutionary and labor movements from their dawn until well into the 20th century. Anarchists bore primary responsibility for organizing workers in Cuba's most important industries, tobacco and sugar. At the height of their influence in the 1920s, Cuba's anarchists controlled the Cuban union Cuban movement, provided free nonreligious schools for poor children, provided meeting places for Cuba's working class, organized campesinos into unions and agricultural Anarchism collectives, and published newspapers and magazines THE HISTORY OF A MOVEMENT across the island. Later, they would take an active part in the resistance to the Machado, Batista, and Castro dictatorships. This book presents their inspiring story.

    THE SAM DOLGOFF COLLECTION Papers, 1907-1969 (Predominantly, 1922-1935) 1.5 linear feet Accession Number 568 L.C. Number The papers of Sam Dolgoff were placed in the Archives of Labor and Urban Affairs in September and October of 1972 by Mr. Dolgoff and opened for research in July of 1983. Born in 1902, Sam Dolgoff began working at an early age as an itinerant laborer in lumbercamps, steel mills and construction projects. He was involved in radical movements since the age of 15 when he joined the Socialist Party youth organization, later turning toward anarchism. His view of anarchism as a constructive social movement was influenced by his mentor Gregori Maximoff, a Russian anarchist. Using the pen name Sam Weiner, Dolgoff wrote widely in radical and anarchist periodicals. Two of his pamphlets are recognized as important critiques of American labor: Ethics and American Unionism (1958) and The Labor Party Illusion (1961). They are not included in this collection. He also served as a correspondent for a number of radical papers in Europe. The papers of Sam Dolgoff which consist of pamphlets on anarchism, socialism and communism reflect his interest in and involvement with radical unionism and politics. Important subjects covered in the collection are: Industrial Workers of the World Radical unionism Communism An index to subjects will be found on p. 5 Sam Dolgoff - 2 - Contents 3 manuscript boxes Series I, Pamphlets, 1907-1969; Boxes 1-3: Pamphlets and booklets on communism, socialism, and radical unions.

    Cuban Revolution -A Critical Perspective

    SAM DOLGOFF THE CUBAN REVOLUTION -A CRITICAL PERSPECTIVE- P RINCIPLES, PROPOSITIONS & D ISCUSSIONS FOR L AND & FREEDOM AN INTRODUCTORY WORD TO THE ANARCHIVE Anarchy is Order! I must Create a System or be enslav d by another Man s. I will not Reason & Compare: my business is to Create (William Blake) During the 19th century, anarchism has develloped as a result of a social current which aims for freedom and happiness. A number of factors since World War I have made this movement, and its ideas, dissapear little by little under the dust of history. After the classical anarchism of which the Spanish Revolution was one of the last representatives a new kind of resistance was founded in the sixties which claimed to be based (at least partly) on this anarchism. However this resistance is often limited to a few (and even then partly misunderstood) slogans such as Anarchy is order , Property is theft ,... Information about anarchism is often hard to come by, monopolised and intellectual; and therefore visibly disapearing.The anarchive or anarchist archive Anarchy is Order ( in short A.O) is an attempt to make the principles, propositions and discussions of this tradition available again for anyone it concerns. We believe that these texts are part of our own heritage. They don t belong to publishers, institutes or specialists. These texts thus have to be available for all anarchists an other people interested. That is one of the conditions to give anarchism a new impulse, to let the new 2 anarchism outgrow the slogans. This is what makes this project relevant for us: we must find our roots to be able to renew ourselves.

    IWW Records, Part 3 1 Linear Foot (2 MB) 1930-1996, Bulk 1993-1996

    Part 1 Industrial Workers of the World Collection Papers, 1905-1972 92.3 linear feet Accession No. 130 L.C. Number MS 66-1519 The papers of the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW) were placed in the Archives of Labor and Urban Affairs in February of 1965, by the Industrial Workers of the World. Other deposits have been made subsequently. Over the turn of the century, the cause of labor and unionism had sustained some hard blows. High immigration, insecurity of employment and frequent economic recessions added to the problems of any believer in unionism. In January, 1905 a group of people from different areas of the country came to Chicago for a conference. Their interest was the cause of labor (viewed through a variety of political glasses) and their hope was somehow to get together, to start a successful drive for industrial unionism rather than craft unionism. A manifesto was formulated and a convention called for June, 1905 for discussion and action on industrial unionism and better working class solidarity. At that convention, the Industrial Workers of the World was organized. The more politically-minded members dropped out after a few years, as the IWW in general wished to take no political line at all, but instead to work through industrial union organization against the capitalist system. The main beliefs of this group are epitomized in the preamble to the IWW constitution, which emphasizes that the workers and their employers have "nothing in common." They were not anarchists, but rather believed in a minimal industrial government over an industrially organized society.
