  • “The Whole World Is Our Homeland”: Anarchist Antimilitarism
    nº 24 - SEPTEMBER 2015 PACIFISTS DURING THE FIRST WORLD WAR IN DEPTH “The whole world is our homeland”: Anarchist antimilitarism Dolors Marín Historian Anarchism as a form of human liberation and as a social, cultural and economic al- ternative is an idea born from the European Illustration. It belongs to the rationalism school of thought that believes in the education of the individual as the essential tool for the transformation of society. The anarchists fight for a future society in which there is no place for the State or authoritarianism, because it is a society structured in small, self-sufficient communities with a deep respect for nature, a concept already present among the utopian socialists. A communitarian (though non necessarily an- ti-individualistic) basis that will be strengthened by the revolutionary trade unionism who uses direct action and insurrectional tactics for its vindications. On a political level, the anarchists make no distinction between goals and methods, because they consider that the fight is in itself a goal. In the anarchist denunciation of the modern state’s authoritarianism the concepts of army and war are logically present. This denunciation was ever-present in the years when workers internationalism appeared, due to the growth of modern European na- tionalisms, the independence of former American colonies and the Asian and African context. The urban proletariat and many labourers from around the world become the cannon fodder in these bloodbaths of youth and devastations of large areas of the pla- net. The workers’ protest is hence channelled through its own growing organizations (trade unions, workmen’s clubs, benefit societies, etc), with the support and the louds- peaker of abundant pacifist literature that will soon be published in clandestine book- lets or pamphlets that circulate on a hand-to-hand basis (1).

  • La Insumisión Voluntaria. El Anarquismo Individualista
    La insumisión voluntaria La insumisión voluntaria El anarquismo individualista español durante la Dictadura y la Segunda República (1923-1938) Xavier Díez esde el punto de vista ideológico, el final del siglo XX ha supuesto para el anarquismo una inútil victoria póstuma. Enfrentado a los grandes movimientos de masas coetáneos, principalmente fascismos y comunismos, ha salido moral- mente más que airoso al anteponer el valor de la libertad sobre todas las cosas, al proponer la independencia frente a la sumisión, a Dno reducir su liberalismo a una simple cuestión de libre comercio. Ha tra- tado de mantener su fidelidad al racionalismo enciclopédico en el corazón de las tinieblas del irracionalismo del siglo, pero no parece haber salido precisamente indemne de todos estos enfrentamientos. Es posible que se haya equivocado a la hora de valorar la condición humana. La filósofa Hanna Arendt, que sufrió también los avatares de una época dura para quienes poseían una habitación propia en su pensamiento, pasó la segunda mitad de su vida tratando de entender precisamente el poliedris- mo de esta condición humana. Arendt, judía alemana, alumna brillante que a los dieciocho años se convirtió en amante de Martin Heidegger, quien con posterioridad trató de dotar de respetabilidad filosófica al nazismo, fue traicionada reiteradamente en lo político y en lo personal. A partir de sus amargas experiencias, de sus persecuciones, de sus exilios, y de las indiferencias con las que fue acogida entre los que pretendidamente eran los suyos –la comunidad judía, los intelectuales de izquierda, los círculos académicos– inició una obra teórica en que trataba de analizar todos los factores que habían perseguido su exterminio físico e intelectual.

  • Anti-Patriotism
    Han Ryner Anti-patriotism 1934 The Anarchist Library Will I manage to avoid here those considerations that belong more in the articles on Fatherland and Patriotism? Anti-patriotism was the reaction of reason and sentiment the moment patri- otism reigned. It took on diverse forms in accordance with the degree to which it relied more or less consciously on individualism, on love for all men, on love for one man (as with Camille, the sister of the Horatii), or even on a reasoned or sentimental preference for the laws and morals of a foreign country. Buddha was necessarily hostile to any patriotic exclusivism, this man who doesn’t even admit what can be called human chauvinism, but extends to all liv- ing beings his loving mercy. In Greece the Sophists were anti-patriotic. Socrates, the greatest of them, proclaimed: “I am not Athenian; I am a citizen of the world.” He condemned the fatherland in the name of “unwritten laws,” i.e., in the name of conscience. Other Sophists rejected it in the name of a more in- terested individualism. Nevertheless, their contemporary Aristophanes detested his democratic fatherland because he admired the aristocratic organization of Lacedemonia. (Thus M. Paul Bourget and M. Leon Daudet, dazzled by the pre- cision power of the German command had their years of naive patriotism: little gigolos who almost inevitably surrender themselves to the most fearsome “ter- ror.”) Plato and Xenophon, poor disciples of Socrates who falsify and use him a bit like M. Charles Maurras falsifies and uses M. Auguste Comte, have sen- timents similar to those of Aristophanes.

  • E. Armand and "La Camaraderie Amoureuse"
    Gaetano Manfredonia Institut d’Etudes Politiques de Paris Francis Ronsin Université de Dijon E. Armand and “la camaraderie amoureuse” Revolutionary sexualism and the struggle against jealousy Written for the workshop ‘Free Love and the Labour Movement’ Second workshop in the series ‘Socialism and Sexuality’ International Institute of Social History Amsterdam, 6 October 2000 International Institute of Social History Amsterdam 2000 Ernest Juin, known as E. Armand (1872-1962), was a member of the Salvation Army when he discovered anarchism around 1896 while reading Les Temps nouveaux, a journal recently launched by Jean Grave. He contributed to Sébastien Faure’s Le Libertaire before founding L’Ere nouvelle with his companion Marie Kugel. From 1901 to 1911 the journal evolved from mystical Christian socialism to philosophy and the Communist libertarian morale, culminating in individualist anarchism. In 1907 he wrote his first pamphlet on sexuality: De la liberté sexuelle, where he advocated not only a vague free love but also multiple partners, which he called “plural love.” Although the publication’s tone was considerably more outspoken than most others like it, Armand’s theses did not differ significantly from the ones repeated incessantly by the male and female companions that supported free love. Only after founding L’en dehors (1922) did Armand elaborate an increasingly original conception of libertarian sexuality. 1. The establishment of l’en dehors and the campaign for revolutionary sexualism L’en dehors did not champion revolutionary sexualism from the outset. During its first twenty months, few articles referred explicitly to issues concerning sexual ethics. Armand tried at first to state his view of anarchist individualism by re- pudiating both the vegetarian movement and the “heroic” interpretations of indivi- dualism.

  • PRINT Vlad Brä…
    1 n 1923, during a series of lectures on political parties and doctrines organised by the Romanian Social Institute, INicolae Petrescu – who took the fl oor on the matter of anarchism –, concluded: “we do not have a proper militant or theoretical anarchist movement.”1 His claim had a categorical tone, leaving no room for doubt. The subject seemed therefore closed, despite the fact that during another set of conferences about the new Romanian Constitution, anarchism was at one point brought into discussion as a threat to democracy. Perhaps Petrescu was convincing enough and it is clear that his opinion was also shared by the academic community: to date, next to nothing has been written in Romania about anarchism on Romanian soil, or about anarchist ideas in a Romanian context. Indeed, today no anarchist movement is known to a wider audience. While these things are clear, one may wonder how the following statement should be judged: Radovici had his Socialist library quite well supplied, and he made it available to all of us [...] By chance or due to Radovici’s preferences, most of the works were anarchist publications. For every Paul Lafargue or Benoît Malon, you would fi nd a Jean le Vagre (Jean Grave), a Kropotkin, an Élisée Reclus (the great geographer), a Bakunin, or a Domella Nieuwenhuis – the Dutchman …2 1.

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

  • On Individualism
    Han Ryner On Individualism 1913 The Anarchist Library I mean by individualism a certain method of thought and life. Or perhaps a necessity of thought and life. Do we not live and think in the measure to which we are individualists? What is not individualist in me repeats, obeys, imitates. Even among the most passive there is doubtless a living hour where he sought within himself his reasons to obey like a cadaver. In order to annihilate his spirit, his heart, and his consciousness he had to appeal to his consciousness, his heart, and his spirit. His sole royal gesture was an abdication; his sole manifestation of life was suicide. And yet, in order to cease being a man he had for one minute to perceive that he was a man. The most social of thinkers remain individualists in the measure to which they remain thinkers. The constructive power of a de Bonald, the verve of a de Maistre: the individual merits, the real life of these writers, and not the servile pro-slavery conclusions that express only their limits and banality. Charles Maurras is superior to the supporter who repeats him, because Charles Maurras has laid out a personal and ingenious road towards the abyss of triviality. Every man has passed through, even if in a fleeting unconscious moment, Descartes’ provisional doubt. Most have been afraid, have retreated to the refuge of their old thoughts. But the terrifying moment has nevertheless en- riched them. Now some of these old thoughts have again become thoughts for them. Until this point, they had only been words.

  • O Sonho Do Amor Plural Entre Anarquistas Libertários
    Artigos O destino indelével do desejo: o sonho do amor plural entre anarquistas libertários Maria Bernardete Ramos Flores1 0000-0002-9438-031X 1Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Florianópolis, SC, Brasil. 88.040-900 – ppghst@contato.ufsc.br Resumo: O artigo aborda o tema do amor livre e da liberdade sexual contemplado pelo anarquismo libertário, nos anos de 1920 e 1930. Um debate revelador deu-se na revista espanhola Estudios, sob o protagonismo da brasileira Maria Lacerda de Moura. Ela combateu a camaraderie amoureuse proposta por Émile Armand, e defendeu o ‘amor plural’, mais fraternal que sensual, seguindo o neo-estoicismo de Han Ryner. A causa em comum foi o combate ao casamento indissolúvel, razão da posse, do exclusivismo sexual, do ciúme, da dominação masculina e da escravização da mulher. A exigência da monogamia era tida como prejudicial ao indivíduo, cerceado no direito natural ao prazer e na livre expansão do desejo. A ideia de amor livre e de liberação sexual apontou para uma nova sensibilidade amorosa e novos acordos éticos. O desafio geral: aliar a natureza biológica do sexo aos deslocamentos incessantes do desejo. Palavras-chave: amor livre; liberdade sexual; anarquismo libertário; feminismo. Desire and its Indelible Destiny: The Dream of Plural Love among Libertarian Anarchists Abstract: The article deals with the theme of free love and sexual liberation as contemplated by libertarian anarchism in the nineteen twenties and thirties. A revealing debate took place in the Spanish magazine Estudios, under the leadership of the Brazilian writer Maria Lacerda de Moura. She condemned the camaraderie amoureuse proposed by Émile Armand, and defended the more fraternal than sensual ‘plural love’, following Han Ryner’s neo-stoicism.
