	Anarchism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Anarchism is the name of a political philosophy, or a generic term for a group of more-or-less related political philosophies, derived from the Greek αναρχία ("without archons" or "without rulers").
		The rise of anarchism as a cohesive philosophical movement in the 19th century, with its notion of freedom as being based upon political, economic, and social equality, was a reaction to the rise of bureaucratic nation state and large-scale industrial capitalism.
		While big 'A' Anarchism referred to ideological Anarchists, small 'a' anarchism was applied to their methodological counterparts; those who viewed anarchism as "a way of acting, or a historical tendency against illegitimate authority." As an anti-ideological position, small 'a' anarchism shares some similarities with post-left anarchy.

	Anarchism - dKosopedia
		Anarchism, also known as "libertarian socialism" (and around the turn of last century, when people used the term "libertarian" they generally meant "anarchist"), is the political ideology and practice of opposing all coercive, hierarchical concentrations of power in society, politics, and economic exchange.
		Anarchism is not a romantic fable but the hardheaded realization, based on five thousand years of experience, that we cannot entrust the management of our lives to kings, priests, politicians, generals, and county commissioners.
		Mikhail Bakunin is one of the founders of Anarchism, and a spirited opponent of Karl Marx.

	Cuban Anarchism Excerpt
		In reading this history of Cuban anarchism, one is struck both by the immense courage and dedication of the Cuban anarchists, and by the lessons to be learned from their struggles.
		As does any avant garde social movement, anarchism attracts more than its share of flakes, parasites, and sociopaths, persons simply looking for a glamorous label to cover their often-pathological selfishness, their disregard for the rights and dignity of others, and their pathetic desire to be the center of attention.
		These individuals tend to give anarchism a bad name, because even though they have very little in common with actual anarchists—that is, persons concerned with ethical behavior, social justice, and the rights of both themselves and others—they’re often quite exhibitionistic, and their disreputable actions sometimes come into the public eye.

		The History of Anarchism by Brian Crabtree (1992) The rejection of authority dates back to the Stoics and Cynics, and has been around for millenia.
		However, the terms anarchist, anarchism, and anarchy, from the Greek "an archos" (without a rule), were used entirely in a negative manner before the nineteenth century.
		Anarchism, although often mistakenly thought of as violent and destructive, is not that at all.

	A history of anarchism in Turkey
		The history of anarchism is indeed very short in Turkey and the title of this pamphlet simply expresses this fact.
		Anarchism was born a part of the western and modern world, yet at the same time it is a denial of these things.
		In this context, anarchism as a denial of modernity and western domination is hardly the solution for the intelligentsia and the politicians of Turkey.

	Anarchism and History (1971) - Melbourne Anarchist Archives
		Anarchism is the theory and practice of total opposition to God and the State, that is, total opposition to the historically dominant forms of the Spirit of Authority.
		Then history will be rewritten as the activity of self-liberation, a history of the class struggle the aim of which is to put the means of sustaining life into the hands of the living.
		Thus in the final analysis anarchism is the consciousness of the aim of the revolution.

	Social Anarchism/African Anarchism
		Opponents of anarchism, especially opponents on the orthodox left, often reject anarchist thought, activism and history with the critique that anarchism is a white middle class movement.
		Moreover the insistence that anarchism is adhered to by privileged Euro-descendant constituents denies unappologetically, the experience of those folks that are anarchist and of neither privileged group.
		For anarchism can not be an external framework imposed as ideology, but must be, in part, a methodology, informed by libertarian and communitarian aspects of culture that already exist.

		Also central in anarchism are the belief in individual freedom and the denial of any authority, particularly that of the state, that hinders human development.

	The communist origins of anarchism - International History of anarchism - Anarkismo
		While anarchism was born decidedly communist, it is true that the persecution of the international by the governments of the period led to deviations of Bakuninist theory, deviations which would leave their mark on the history of the anarchist movement, above all on the Italian movement.
		As communism represents the inevitable result of human history, as long as it is reached spontaneously as a result of certain inescapable factors such as Man's own inclinations and the laws which govern nature, there is a total absence in Kropotkin of any trace of political strategy.
		After the decline of anarchism at the end of the last century into an isolationist period of terrorist acts, in many countries it re-discovered its mass base through anarcho-syndicalism, in other words in those workers' organizations which slowly brought anarchism back to its communist roots.

		The former have approached libertarian history from the perspective of the self-ownership principle; that is, anarchists and libertarians were usually defined by their adherence to the axiom that each person is a self-owner and should control his own person and justly owned property.
		Since anarchism is the doctrine that all the affairs of the people should be conducted on a voluntary basis, it is up to the people who compose such a society to arrange their affairs as suits them.

	Introduction - Anarchist People of Color (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		An overwhelming majority of anarchists have always rejected terrorism, because they’ve been intelligent enough to realize that means determine ends, that terrorism is inherently vanguardist, and that even when “successful” it almost always leads to bad results.
		For a century and a half now, anarchists have been arguing that coercive, hierarchical organization (as embodied in government) is not equivalent to organization per se (which they regard as necessary), and that coercive organization should be replaced by decentralized, non-hierarchical organization based on voluntary cooperation and mutual aid.
		Such individuals may (mis)use the label, but they’re anarchists only in the sense that the now-defunct German Democratic Republic (East Germany) was democratic and a republic.

		My main problems with 'Cuban Anarchism: the History of a Movement' stem from what I believe to be Fernandez's tendency to lose all ability to formulate an effective argument when the issue of the Cuban Revolution comes up.
		There is no such thing as neutrality, especially in writing history, but not all historical writing is equally obscured by one's partisan perspective.
		By bringing this rich, but suppressed history out of the closet, and by reviving historical memory, Fernandez takes the first step in renewing anarchism as a historical possibility for the Cuban people.

		Starting with a good introduction to anarchism, the authors outline its relationship with Africa in an attempt to "enrich anarchism and anarchist principles with an African perspective and to carve a place for Africa within the framework of the worldwide anarchist movement".
		Although anarchism as a conscious social movement is relatively new in Africa, pre-colonial African societies contained many "anarchic elements".
		The authors give an in-depth study of the causes of Africa's current crises, outlining clearly the revolutionary potential of Africa and the many reasons why anarchism is indeed Africa's only way out.
