  • Social Anarchism. Introduction. Giovanni Baldelli
    It was about 1982, two years after the first issue of Social Anarchism was published that I received a call from David Wieck, one of our editorial board members. David, like most of those on the board, had been invited to serve because of his articles which we had reprinted in our first anthology, Reinventing Anarchy. He had become a regular writer for us, and following each issue he would call to let me know what he thought of it. He was a tough taskmaster and was often on target with his comments. This call was different. "Could you use about 1,000 copies of Giovanni Baldelli's Social Anarchism? They'd make great premiums for new subscribers." I had to admit I had never heard of Baldelli and confessed my ignorance to David. "I'll send you a copy. See what you think." When I did receive and read the book, I was impressed by two aspects of Baldelli's work. One was his "moral anarchist philosophy" and the other was the creative manner in which he dealt with economics. So, getting back to David, who it turned out had translated and edited the book, I asked the natural question, "What are you doing with a thousand copies?" As far as I can recall from our conversation, Wieck and Baldelli had submitted the manuscript to Atherton Press of Chicago. It was a moderate-sized academic press, and Social Anarchism fit with their political books series. At some point while the book was being printed, Atherton merged with Aldine and shortly thereafter, the combined publishers declared bankruptcy.

  • Cinquant'anni Di Volontà Indici 1946-1996 a Cura Di Dario Bernardi E Luciano Lanza Nota Introduttiva Durante I Decenni Di Pu
    Cinquant’anni di Volontà Indici 1946-1996 a cura di Dario Bernardi e Luciano Lanza Nota introduttiva Durante i decenni di pubblicazione, e con il rotare di redazioni e responsabili, ovviamente le norme di scrittura sono andate mutando. Qui abbiamo preferito seguire alcune regole generali che sistematizzassero le varie modalità così da consentire una ricerca quanto più agevole possibile. Dunque gli Indici riportano, numero per numero, anno per anno (in base alla numerazione progressiva che talvolta travalica l’anno solare), il titolo dell’articolo pubblicato seguito dal nome dell’autore. Ove possibile, il nome e cognome dell’autore è stato sempre esplicitato (anche quando non lo era nell’Indice originario) al fine di attribuire chiaramente la paternità dell’articolo (per gli pseudonimi, si veda la lista non esaustiva a fine Indici). Si è inoltre evitato di utilizzare le sigle per autori con iniziali simili (per esempio: Luigi Fabbri, Luce Fabbri), tranne che in alcune rubriche (anche per questo si veda la lista delle sigle principali a fine Indici). Sempre con l’obiettivo di facilitare la ricerca, i nomi degli autori stranieri sono stati scritti in lingua originale (per esempio: Pëtr Kropotkin e non Pietro Kropotkin o Kropotkine) e sono stati inoltre corretti alcuni errori presenti nel testo originale (per esempio: non Emile Armand, come era comunemente, ma erroneamente, noto in Italia, bensì E. Armand, effettivo pseudonimo di Ernest Juin). Infine le rubriche sono state evidenziate con il maiuscoletto – LETTERE DEI LETTORI; ANTOLOGIA; RECENSIONI;

The questions of utopian intent, potential, and method are explored through an analysis of Oliveros’s untraditional scores, as well as an exploration of Oliveros’s writings and secondary accounts from members of the Deep Listening community.
