It is about form- ing assemblies, engaging in collective and/or individual protests, involves delay tactics or direct oppositions, refusals to collaborate or the creation of alternatives—and much more. It involves power relations, violence and reshaping our political, physical and social environments. Practices of resis- tance might be played out by individuals or groups in local, national or inter- national spaces and embrace activities, which are to be seen as constructive, productive, emotional, invisible, grand, hindering or up-scaled. It might chal- lenge, redirect, subvert, mitigate or evade mechanisms and manifestations of power; it might even produce new forms of power. It permeates all that we recognise as culture, material settings and the very conditions of human exis- tence, such as, life and death. And, it seems to be one of the most important engines of social change. To cover all these aspects of resistance, the Resis- tance studies series publishes original research on a wide range of issues, such as, subversive emotions, revolutionary struggles, political subjectivities, pre- carious resistance, the dynamics of dissident communities or belongings, and covering a wide range of productive resistance practices.

In 2017, 60 international scholars travelled to Frankfurt for the confer- ence ‘International Dissidence: Rule and Resistance in a Globalized World’. Building on this conference, we developed the typology of contestation, esca- lation and exit, and selected the contributions that were most promising in order to introduce this framework into the scholarly discourse. In June 2018, the authors of this volume convened yet again in Frankfurt for the workshop ‘The Transnationalization of Rule and Resistance’. We wish to thank all par- ticipants of these conferences for their stimulating contributions to the discus- sions around rule and resistance beyond the nation state. Both the conference and the workshop were funded by the Cluster of Excellence ‘The Formation of Normative Orders’. Furthermore, the open-access option is also sponsored by the Cluster. We are grateful for this funding and the help provided by our colleagues in Max-Horkheimer Straße. Without their extraordinary institu- tional support, this book could not have been written. In addition, we are grateful to all those without whose help these events, and this book as a result, would not have been possible: At Rowman & Littlefield International, we want to thank Dhara Snowden and Rebecca Anastasi for steering this book project through its development. Three anonymous reviewers gave constructive criticism, and the series edi- tors of the Resistance Studies Series supported this volume throughout the process. In Frankfurt, we owe great thanks to Janusz Biene, Priska Daphi, Maik Fielitz, Regina Hack, Daniel Kaiser, Holger Marcks, Martin Schmetz, Christina Walz and Antonia Witt for their intellectual and logistic efforts in vii Rule and Resistance Beyond the Nation State / Anderl / Open Access PDF from Rowman & Littlefield viii Acknowledgements organising the conference and beyond. Particularly, we want to thank Freya Steinbeck for her great work as conference assistant as well as Beate Stein and Viola Niemack for their untiring support in organisational matters. Ben Kamis was the one who made the book readable with his language editing. Finally, we are very grateful to Camilla Torresan, Ben Christian and Lisa Riegert, who provided invaluable editorial assistance and were able to bring order into the (sometimes contradictory) ideas and suggestions by six editors.

As interna- tional relations become increasingly institutionalised, their underlying asym- metries are manifested in relations of super- and subordination—structures of rule (Daase and Deitelhoff 2018, 2).1 This process conjures resistance in many shapes and forms. Examples range from the movement against corpo- rate globalisation and its mass street protests to violent projects for religious statehood and alternative

Reviews must examine the failings and virtues of books for a contemporary anarchist theory and politics. Anarchism is understood here as a doctrine seeking the abolition of capitalism, the nation-state, and hierarchy generally, and the creation of a cooperative economy, a decentralized confederation of communes or municipalities, and a culture of liberation. The deadline for the next issue is July 1, 2003. Each review must treat at least two books and one must have been published in the previous two years. In some cases, reviews of works in other media (such as film) will be accepted. Reviews of two books should be between 2,500 to 3,000 words and reviews of three should be 3,500 to 4,000 words.

Crane, Chair Professor Susanna L. Blumenthal, University of Minnesota Professor Jonathan L. Freedman Associate Professor Scott R. Lyons “Everything…that the community chooses to regard as such can become a subject—a potential center—of rights, whether a plant or an animal, a human being or an imagined spirit; and nothing, if the community does not choose to regard it so, will become a subject of rights, whether human being or anything else.” -Alexander Nékám, 1938 © Nicolette Isabel Bruner Olson 2015 For my family – past, present, and future. ii Acknowledgements This dissertation could not have been completed without the support of my committee: Gregg Crane, Jonathan Freedman, Scott Lyons, and Susanna Blumenthal. Gregg Crane has been a constant source of advice and encouragement whose intimate knowledge of law and literature scholarship has been invaluable to my own development as a scholar. Jonathan Freedman’s class on “Fictions of Finance” inspired much of the work in this dissertation, as did Susanna Blumenthal’s seminar on “The Concept of the Person” during my time at the University of Michigan Law School. Jonathan’s good humor, grace, and sympathetic yet critical eye have profoundly shaped my work. As I have expanded my research into animal studies, Scott Lyons guided me to new intellectual domains. Finally, ever since I began working with her during my first year of law school, Susanna has been a source of wisdom, encouragement, and generosity.

More enigmatic than the Islamic revolution itself were the aims of its supporters, although most of the opposition groups had explicitly stated their objectives in their publications long before the revolution. But the tightening censorship in Iran had forced the whole spectrum of the opposition to publish abroad. The evasive nature of dissident literature makes bibliographical control, and acquisition in general, extremely difficult. In the case of the Iranian revolution we are fortunate that "W.H. Behn has taken on the formidable task of listing (in his bibliographies) every publication of an anti-Pahlavi nature in Persian, or in other languages about Iran, published outside Iran between 1962 and the establishment of the Islamic Republic in 1979. The measure of his success is that he has amassed a total of some 800 books and pamphlets... [The ] work... will be an indispensable tool for anyone studying the recent history of Iran and the sources of the opposition to the Shah that led to the revolution of 1979" (Prof.

  • Celebrating the Centenary of the Communist Party of Iran
    Celebrating the Centenary of the Communist Party of Iran Document of the Enlarged Plenary Meeting of Central Committee (Feb. 2020) Dear Comrades, June 2020 marks the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of Iran. Although the seeds of the labour and social democracy movement in our homeland were planted and grown during the Constitutional Revolution (1906) - and had a decisive impact on its development and victory - the Iranian labour and communist movement in the form of an organised and cohesive party formally began in June 1920 with the founding of the Communist Party of Iran led by the prominent figure of the Constitutional Revolution, Haydar Amo-Oghli (also known as Haydar Khan). The history of the left and Marxist ideas in Iran dates back to the late 19th century and early 20th century. With the rapid growth of industry and the development of the capitalist mode of production, Marx’s teachings found their way to Iran. The social and political arena of that period could be summarised, within the historic development of Iranian society, as the transition from feudalism to capitalism. The nascent capitalism of that time was growing, albeit sluggishly, while in parallel the birth and formation of the working class was taking shape. In the late 19th century, under the influence and impact of progressive left-wing views, the anti- dictatorship struggle grew significantly, and a growing number of people began to join the revolutionary struggle. Abdolhossein Agāhi, our martyred comrade and a prominent historian, wrote in his book, “The History of [political]Parties in Iran”, about the growth of socialism in Iran: “For the first time in Iran, in [an edition Figure 1: Haydar Amo- Ogghli, Leader of the of] the newspaper “Iran” (March 1917) an article from Communist Party of Iran, 1920 “Akhtar” newspaper (printed in Istanbul) - [originally published] on the occasion of the 9th anniversary of the Paris Commune (March 18, 1871) - [was reprinted] in which socialist ideas were introduced [to Iran].

Black Seed no. 5: With frenemies like these… . 16 E. Fascism ....................................... 20 Conclusion .......................................... 25 2 Eco-extremists and aligned theorists writing in the English language have contributed little regarding recent polemics against our Tendency. This is a wise decision since, for those whohate us, our words only inflame their hatred all the more and, while we don’t mind being hated,we would rather focus our energies elsewhere. Our enemies seem to thrive on finding opponents they are unable to defeat (Nazis, the Republican Party, civilization, etc.) so accumulating a few more enemies can make it seem like they are getting somewhere., We neither need nor desire their parasitic attention. Unfortunately for us, aligned parties have asked us to respond, and to that end we have pro- duced this essay. Herein we seek to inform on certain controversial topics that Anglophone read- ers may have missed in an environment of social media and twenty-four hour distraction. We do this both for those interested in what we write, but also for those who hate us. If that much emo- tional investment is going to be placed in events that occur outside of one’s immediate sphere, it might as well be for the right reasons. We will primarily address the essay, “Of Indiscriminate Attacks & Wild Reactions,” from the Olympia-based “edelweiss pirates.” We will also touch on criticisms expressed in Black Seed 5, as well as in other communiqués and call-outs issued in the last six months or so as needed.
