  • The Meaning of Anarchism Via Twelve Libertarians
    The Meaning of Anarchism via twelve libertarians Part 2: The Founding Mothers Iain McKay www.anarchistfaq.org Overview Anarchism is a much misunderstood and much misrepresented theory. Rejecting the chaos of capitalism and statism, it seeks to create the order of libertarian socialism, a free society of free associates. To discover more, please join Iain McKay (author of An Anarchist FAQ) for an exploration of libertarian ideas by means of six male and six female anarchist thinkers and activists. Over two nights, the lives and ideas of the founding fathers and mothers of anarchism – including Michael Bakunin, Peter Kropotkin, Louise Michel and Emma Goldman – will be discussed and their continuing relevance highlighted. Founding Mothers, 1840 to 1940 •André Léo •Louise Michel •Lucy Parsons •Voltairine de Cleyre •Emma Goldman •Marie-Louise Berneri The Meaning of Anarchism Freedom within association Ownership undivided, use divided • Liberty • Socialisation (free access) • Free Association • Use rights (possession) • Equality • Federalism • Self-management • Decentralisation • Solidarity • Decentred • Direct Action • Functional Democracy Libertarian socialism Tyrannies, home and away • Critique both public and private hierarchy • Opposition to State – government replaced by federalism • Opposition to Capital – wage-labour replaced by association • But at home? • Proudhon defended patriarchy • “with which most modern writers will, of course, not agree” (Kropotkin) • Opposition to Patriarchy on the left • Often lip-service, often not even that

  • 150 Years of Libertarian
    150 years of Libertarian The Anarchist FAQ Editorial Collective 2008 This year, 2008, marks the 150th anniversary of the use of the word “libertarian” by anarchists. As is well known, anarchists use the terms “libertarian”, “libertarian socialist” and “libertarian communist” as equivalent to “anarchist” and, similarly, “libertarian socialism” or “libertarian communism” as an alternative for “anarchism.” This is perfectly understandable, as the anarchist goal is freedom, liberty, and the ending of all hierarchical and authoritarian institutions and social relations. Unfortunately, in the United States the term “libertarian” has become, since the 1970s, associated with the right-wing, i.e., supporters of “free-market” capitalism. That defenders of the hierarchy associated with private property seek to associate the term “libertarian” for their authoritarian system is both unfortunate and some- what unbelievable to any genuine libertarian. Equally unfortunately, thanks to the power of money and the relative small size of the anarchist movement in America, this appropriation of the term has become, to a large extent, the default meaning there. Somewhat ironically, this results in some right-wing “libertarians” complain- ing that we genuine libertarians have “stolen” their name in order to associate our socialist ideas with it! The facts are somewhat different. As Murray Bookchin noted, “libertarian” was “a term created by nineteenth-century European anarchists, not by contemporary American right-wing proprietarians.” [The Ecology of Freedom, p. 57] While we discuss this issue in An Anarchist FAQ in a few places (most obviously, section A.1.3) it is useful on the 150^th anniversary to discuss the history of anarchist use of the word “libertarian” to describe our ideas.

Perhaps, as Mark Bevir has argued, the ideological label pinned to Morris’s socialism is of ‘little importance’ for as long as his political thought is described adequately. Nevertheless, the starting point for this essay is that thinking about the application of ideological descriptors is a useful exercise and one which sheds important light on Morris’s socialism and the process of ideological formation in the late nineteenth-century socialist movement.

  • Here Is Louise Michel This, People Could Say She Is a Pathological Case
    Number 93-94 £1 or two dollars Mar. 2018 Here is Louise Michel this, people could say she is a pathological case. But there are thousands like her, millions, none of whom gives a damn about authority. They all repeat the battle cry of the Russian revolutionaries: land and freedom! Yes, there are millions of us who don’t give a damn for any authority because we have seen how little the many-edged tool of power accomplishes. We have watched throats cut to gain it. It is supposed to be as precious as the jade axe that travels from island to island in Oceania. No. Power monopolized is evil. Who would have thought that those men at the rue Hautefeuille who spoke so forcefully of liberty and who denounced the tyrant Napoleon so loudly would be among those in May 1871 who wanted to drown liberty in blood?

  • Anarcho-Feminism in Late Victorian and Edwardian Britain, 1880±1914
    IRSH 47 (2002), pp. 1±31 DOI: 10.1017/S0020859002000463 # 2002 Internationaal Instituut voor Sociale Geschiedenis Anarcho-Feminism in late Victorian and Edwardian Britain, 1880±1914 Matthew Thomas Summary: This article seeks to interpret the synthesis between anarchism and feminism as developed by a group of late nineteenth and early twentieth-century British women. It will demonstrate that the woman who embraced anarchism made a clear contribution to the growth of feminism. They offered a distinctive analysis of the reasons for female oppression, whether it was within the economic sphere or within marriage. The anarcho-feminists maintained that if an egalitarian society was ever to be built, differences in roles ± whether in sexual relationships, childcare, political life or work ± had to be based on capacity and preference, not gender. By combining these questions they developed a feminism that was all embracing at a time when the struggle for the vote was becoming the main question for women. Despite its small size when compared with socialist organizations like the Social Democratic Federation (SDF) and the Independent Labour Party (ILP), British anarchism exhibited great diversity, harbouring different ideological tendencies and organizational frameworks.1 Its supporters included communist revolutionaries, libertarian individualists, rural com- munitarians, and industrial unionists. At no time did the majority of these exponents unite under one organizational umbrella; they opted instead for small, independent units, many of whom had little contact with each other. British anarchism was not a political ``movement'' in the traditional sense of a closely regulated and coordinated body. Ideological, gender, ethnic, and class differences divided anarchists into multiform groups and disparate individuals, many of whom had little contact with each other.

  • This Ugly Civilization
    THIS UGLY CIVILIZATION by RALPH BORSODI NEW YORK SIMON AND SCHUSTER 1 9 2 9 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED COPYRIGHT, 1929, BY SIMON AND SCHUSTER, INC. 37 WEST 57 STREET NEW YORK PRINTED IN U. S. A. BY VAIL-BALLOU PRESS, BINGHAMTON BOUND BY H. WOLFF EST., N. Y. Dedicated to MYRTLE MAE BORSODI Whose Courage, Initiative and Resourcefulness Made the adventure possible Which inspired this book And for whose patient cooperation in its production A tribute of mere words is wholly Inadequate --PREFACE-- This book in its present form is an attempt, still largely unsatisfactory to myself, to project certain ideas evolved from a quest of comfort--material and philosophical--in some respect quite different from that which engages most of us today. If I have ventured to step from the humdrum practicality of economics to the sacred and dangerous precincts of philosophy, it is because philosophers generally seem to forget that the acquisition of food, clothing and shelter is prerequisite to the pursuit of the good, the true and the beautiful. Epistemology, ethics and esthetics acquire reality only if related to economics. While not too sanguine about my success in venturing into this field, the book cannot wholly fail if here and there it spurs men and women to free themselves from the ugliness of this civilization. If it directs the attention of even a few thinkers to the questions with which it deals, I will feel fully justified in having published it. It is impossible to acknowledge my indebtedness to all from whom I have taken counsel in the preparation of this book, but special mention must be made of my friend Guy M.

  • The “Illegalists”
    The “Illegalists” Doug Imrie 1994–95 “It is idiotic that those who have figured things out are forced to wait for the mass of cretins who are blocking the way to evolve. The herd will always be the herd. So let’s leave it to stagnate and work on our own emancipation (…) Put your old refrains aside. We have had enough of always sacrificing ourselves for something. The Fatherland, Society and Morality have fallen (…) That’s fine, but don’t contribute to reviving new entities for us: the Idea, the Revolution, Propaganda, Solidarity; we don’t give a damn. What we want is to live, to have the comforts and well-being we have a right to. What we want to accomplish is the development of our individuality in the full sense of the word, in its entirety. The individual has a right to all possible well-being, and must try to attain it all the time, by any means…” (Hégot, an illegalist, writing to the anarchist journal Les Temps Nouveaux in 1903, on behalf of a “small circle” who shared his opinions.) Parallel to the social, collectivist anarchist current there was an individualist one whose par- tisans emphasized their individual freedom and advised other individuals to do the same. In- dividualist anarchist activity spanned the full spectrum of alternatives to authoritarian society, subverting it by undermining its way of life facet by facet. The vast majority of individualist an- archists were caught in the trap of wage labor like their collectivist comrades and the proletariat in general: they had to work for peanuts or starve.
