The experiment took the form of an autonomous kindergarten and youth solidarity program named ‘Koko Lepo’ which has been continually reborn over years of trial and error as well as struggles over the nature of solidarity, autonomy, and equality. Working with an anarchistic anthropological lens of the State as a holistic social agency and a class-struggle framework for understanding race in the capitalist city, this dissertation examines how ‘the anarchists’ and ‘the gypsies’ of this project confronted – or were confronted by – the State and racism and how, through acts of sacrifice and incommensurability, succeeded or failed to overcome the “inimical profane” of these forces in the creation of a new “sacred politics” of solidarity and autonomy on their own terms. This study entails an interpretive and power-centered analysis of the InexFilm squat and the mobilization of symbolic violence to create political identities therein, a political economic account of the Deponija slum and an argument for the political agency of racialized laboring and policed subjects, and finally an interpretive and historical account of the use and evolution of concrete values within the Koko Lepo collective. Methodologically, this work is an argument for the inclusion of direct action into ethnographic research and the experimental basis of solidarity. CEU eTD Collection 4 Acknowledgments I am most indebted to my fellow collective members in Koko Lepo and the families of the Deponija mahala. The richness of our collective experiment could produce mountains of literature, and might still, but more importantly it created precedents and joined the global struggle for equality, solidarity, and autonomy with concrete interventions. While I have anonymized all of you in this writing, I hope you know how profoundly you have changed my epistemology and my life. The work is far from over. I would especially like to thank Sait and Emrana from Deponija, however, for patiently showing me the ropes and consistently filling-in the gaps of my understanding of life in the settlement, as well as properly scolding me when we pushed too hard in the wrong places. Of course, I am also grateful for the mentoring of my supervisor, Don Kalb. While your influence on this work may be less than obvious in places to my readers, it is in fact the foundations upon which my understanding of class struggle has been constructed. I couldn’t have asked for a better mentor, one that let me sail freely out into the ocean of social experimentation, yet kept the lighthouse burning for me to find my way home. You trusted me enough to take great risks and make profound shifts in my course of study that other doctoral students would consider unrequitable luxuries. Thanks to this trust, I have been free to construct an anthropology that can intervene directly into the issues and problems that have defined our intellectual and moral bearings. I thank you for making this worker from Texas feel understood and capable in Academia. I thank my parents, Fred and Candy, for passing on to me their intellects, love, and belief in a world larger than our own from which both my brother, Bryan, and I have grown. I thank Relja Knežević for inviting me to share his world and offer me a life in Belgrade that matters while constantly challenging me to rethink and reformulate my activism. I thank Andrej Grubačić for his comradeship and intellectual influence on my work as both an anarchist and anthropologist. I thank my band, Justin, Noemi, and Endre, for melding my work with ours and taking an active and supportive interest in my activities here. I thank Bojan Đurišić for being my cimer, comrade, and friend as well as helping me find work to keep starvation from interrupting my research. I thank the teachers of the Tom and Ema School of English for their support and understanding. I thank Stefan Bakić for being a knowledgeable and critical interlocutor and a good friend. I thank Marko Ferenc for being an amazing fellow traveler and supporting me when I needed it most. I thank Tanja Anđić for her editorial prowess and critical gaze on my writing. I thank Milan Škobić for his intellectual honesty and for the challenging debates he has always been willing to join me in during our tenure at Inex. On that note, I am indebted to the support of my dear comrades past and present from the CEU eTD Collection Infoshop Furija as well as many others at the InexFilm squat and those who have passed through it, each shaping my understanding of the Other World of Experienced Reversed in new ways. Finally, there are two people whose impact on my life has proven inestimable. I am humbled by the support, love, and comradeship of Natalija Đorđević, whose belief in me continues to fuel my desire to help create a better world. And to my eternal comrade, Natalia Buier, whose sharp edges and soft heart will forever prefigure my own politics, I offer more than gratitude, but a promise to continue our work and keep the bastards scared. 5 Introduction CEU eTD Collection Dissertation overview [A] Class and race [B] Anarchism and the State [C] Methodology [D] Photo: Maja Blesic 6 [i/A] Dissertation overview ‘Gypsies’ and ‘Anarchists’: solidarity, autonomy, and the inimical profane in Belgrade This text is a critical and analytical record of struggles that took place in Belgrade, Serbia between the years 2013-2016 as part of the long and arduous attempt to reconcile two related but antagonistic fields through a single collective

Il a été construit en 1970 et reconstruit de 2010 à 2012. Nous décrivons ici le projet de drainage du pont dans le cadre de sa reconstruction. Le pont est situé dans une zone protégée autour de la source d'alimentation en eau potable de Belgrade, et est donc soumis à des contraintes sévères en termes de rejets d’eaux de pluie. Le projet a été conçu sur la base d’une pluie décennale. L'écoulement pluvial de la plate-forme du pont et des voies d'accès s'évacue via de nombreux dispositifs : bouches avaloirs en bord de trottoir, tuyaux installés le long des structures du pont, rejets vers le réseau d’assainissement de Belgrade ou vers des dispositifs de premier flot et rétention/infiltration sur les rives de la rivière Sava. Les tuyaux sont fixés sur la structure du pont au moyen de crochets ou d’ancrages, ou posés sur des rouleaux. Les sous-systèmes comprennent plusieurs éléments de réduction ou en « T », des coudes et des installations pour compenser les différents impacts de la structure du pont, notamment les mouvements ou les affaissements de la structure.

  • Markets Not Capitalism Explores the Gap Between Radically Freed Markets and the Capitalist-Controlled Markets That Prevail Today
    individualist anarchism against bosses, inequality, corporate power, and structural poverty Edited by Gary Chartier & Charles W. Johnson Individualist anarchists believe in mutual exchange, not economic privilege. They believe in freed markets, not capitalism. They defend a distinctive response to the challenges of ending global capitalism and achieving social justice: eliminate the political privileges that prop up capitalists. Massive concentrations of wealth, rigid economic hierarchies, and unsustainable modes of production are not the results of the market form, but of markets deformed and rigged by a network of state-secured controls and privileges to the business class. Markets Not Capitalism explores the gap between radically freed markets and the capitalist-controlled markets that prevail today. It explains how liberating market exchange from state capitalist privilege can abolish structural poverty, help working people take control over the conditions of their labor, and redistribute wealth and social power. Featuring discussions of socialism, capitalism, markets, ownership, labor struggle, grassroots privatization, intellectual property, health care, racism, sexism, and environmental issues, this unique collection brings together classic essays by Cleyre, and such contemporary innovators as Kevin Carson and Roderick Long. It introduces an eye-opening approach to radical social thought, rooted equally in libertarian socialism and market anarchism. “We on the left need a good shake to get us thinking, and these arguments for market anarchism do the job in lively and thoughtful fashion.” – Alexander Cockburn, editor and publisher, Counterpunch “Anarchy is not chaos; nor is it violence. This rich and provocative gathering of essays by anarchists past and present imagines society unburdened by state, markets un-warped by capitalism.

    Corporate Impersonation: The Possibilities of Personhood in American Literature, 1886-1917 by Nicolette Isabel Bruner A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (English Language and Literature) in the University of Michigan 2015 Doctoral Committee Professor Gregg D. 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.

London and New York: Routledge. 2 Assessing (Multi)culturalism through Public Art Practices Anru Lee and Perng-juh Peter Shyong This chapter investigates the issue of multiculturalism through public art practices in Taiwan. Specifically, we focus on the public art project of the Mass 14Rapid Transit System in Kaohsiung (hereafter, Kaohsiung MRT), and examine how the discourse of multiculturalism intertwines with the discourse of public art that informs the practice of the latter. Multiculturalism in this case is considered as an ideological embodiment of the politics of difference, wherein our main concern is placed on the ways in which different constituencies in Kaohsiung respond to the political-economic ordering of Kaohsiung in post-Second World War Taiwan and to the challenges Kaohsiung City faces in the recent events engendering global economic change. We see the Kaohsiung MRT public art project as a field of contentions and its public artwork as a ‘device of imagination’ and ‘technique of representation’ (see Ngo and Wang in this volume).

  • On Social Ecology and Climate Justice
    For Stefan G. Jacobsen, ed., Climate Justice and the Economy: Social mobilization, knowledge and the political (Routledge 2018) On Social Ecology and the Movement for Climate Justice – Brian Tokar, Institute for Social Ecology and University of Vermont Environmental Program Abstract: The theory and praxis of social ecology have guided social movements seeking a radical, counter- systemic ecological outlook since the 1960s, advancing goals of transforming society’s relationship to non-human nature and reharmonizing human communities’ ties to the natural world. This chapter reviews the philosophy and political outlook of social ecology, its multifaceted contributions to social movements past and present, and its emerging contributions to addressing current climate policy challenges. These include the viability of proposed transition strategies toward a fossil-free future, the potentialities and limitations of localist, community-centered responses to climate change, the problems inherent in current market-driven models of renewable energy development, and the potential contributions of reconstructive, neo-utopian outlooks to contemporary climate politics. We conclude that, despite the ever-present threat of climate catastrophe, a genuinely transformative climate justice movement needs to advance a forward-looking view of an improved quality of life for most people in a future freed from fossil fuel dependence. As the immediate consequences of global climate disruptions become increasingly difficult to ignore, a host of long-range, systemic
