	Anton Pannekoek - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Anton Pannekoek (January 2, 1873 – April 28, 1960) was a Dutch astronomer and Marxist theorist.
		As a recognized Marxist theorist, Pannekoek was one of the founders of the council communist tendency and a main figure in the radical left in the Netherlands and Germany.
		Basing his theory on what he regarded as the practical lessons of the Russian revolution, Pannekoek argued that the workers' revolution and the transition from capitalism to communism had to be achieved by the workers themselves, democratically organised in workers' councils.

	Anton Pannekoek and the Quest For An Emancipatory Socialism
		Pannekoek considered Dietzgen an indispensable supplement to Marx and Engels, whose ideas were of almost equal importance.(2) From Dietzgen, Pannekoek derived the view as early as 1901, that the material world and the world of consciousness constituted an inseparable entity in which each reciprocally conditions the other.
		Pannekoek argued that since the trade unions, and for that matter the political parties, were based on the principle of dominance by leaders, they were a faithful reproduction of the capitalist state and would be a steadfast ally of the bourgeoisie in any revolution.
		Pannekoek's legacy, therefore, is largely a personal and moral one-but it is an important legacy of a life dedicated to the vision of a radically free and democratic society, a life lived in the grips of a powerful humanitarian commitment.

	Anton Pannekoek by Paul Mattick 1960 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Anton Pannekoek’s life span coincided with what was almost the whole history of the modern labour movement; he experienced its rise as a movement of social protest, its transformation into a movement of social reform, and its eclipse as an independent class movement in the contemporary world.
		Though in the tradition of the “libertarian socialism”; of Nieuwenhuis, Pannekoek’s opposition to reformism and social-democratic “revisionism” was a Marxist opposition to the “official Marxism”; in both its “orthodox” and “revisionist” forms.
		But Pannekoek’s defence of Marxism Was not that of the doctrinaire; more than anyone else he recognised that Marxism is not a dogma but a method of thinking about social issues in the actual process of social transformation.

	Book Review: Workers Councils (Pannekoek) \| NEFAC
		Pannekoek was the main theoretician of the council movement, which for decades was all but forgotten.
		Pannekoek understood that Czarism was not overthrown by parliamentarism or trade unions, but rather the outbreak and evolution of workers' soviets and soldiers' councils.
		Pannekoek came to reject the vanguard party model as counterproductive to a radicalization of the working class and, therefore decided it was an obstacle on the road to real socialism.

		Pannekoek comments, “Strong as these arguments may appear at first sight they were not hard for socialists to overcome”.

		The movement was generated by Anton Pannekoek's International Council Communists in Amsterdam and Paul Mattick's Council Communist group, and it had as adherents Karl Korsch and Antonio Gramsci (who, like Lenin, supported the workers' councils in Turin after World War I).
		Pannekoek and Bertrand Russell were arguably the most important role models for Chomsky, and indeed their work most clearly resembles his own later efforts.
		The workers, [Pannekoek] wrote, "must be masters of the factories, masters of their own labour, to conduct it at their own will." Such "common ownership must not be confounded with public ownership," a system in which workers are commanded by state officials who direct production.

	What Is To Be Undone - Chapter Eleven
		Anton Pannekoek was perhaps the most famous of the European Council Communists and was the principle target of Lenin's derogatory polemic, Left Wing Communism: An Infantile Disorder.
		Pannekoek was one of many libertarian Marxists who shared Gramsci's general concerns, but where the others (Lukacs, Bloch, etc.) put most of their time into studying culture, Pannekoek emphasized issues of state power, workers' management, and workers' councils.
		For Pannekoek the Bolshevik mistake was in subjugating workers rather than propelling them, and in destroying their organs of power rather than fostering them, not only for reasons of freedom and prevention of bureaucracy, as important as those are, but also for reasons of economic efficiency.

		In short, Darwin wasn't acting alone; from the moment his theory was proposed, he received the support that came from the social classes and groups whose nucleus was made up of Masons.
		In his book, Marxism and Darwinism, the Marxist thinker Anton Pannekoek writes about this important fact and describes the support lent to Darwin by the "bourgeoisie," that is, the wealthy European capitalist class.:
		That Marxism owes its importance and position only to the role it takes in the proletarian class struggle, is known to all Yet it is not hard to see that in reality Darwinism had to undergo the same experiences as Marxism.
