Libertarian Marxism's relation to anarchism - by Wayne Price NEFAC Some of the libertarian Marxists, such as James and Dunayevskya and their followers, have sought to break out of the mechanical version of Marxism by going back to Hegel's philosophy. The libertarian Marxists sought to reinterpret Marxism from the orthodox versions taught by the social democrats or Stalinists. Even the libertarian aspects of Marxism--such as working class organization or the goal of a society with unalienated labor--were ignored. nefac.net /node/1156

sp000367.txt Anarchism and Marxism From a semantic point of view, libertarian socialism is disposed to unite according to the concept of true socialism (without bureaucracy and with liberty) all well-intentioned socialists. For this libertarian socialism needs a little more scientific rigor and a little less utopianism, although it is necessary to take the adjective "scientific" with a grain of salt, as it has been depreciated enough by the soviets. The Libertarian Economy The libertarian economy, going beyond the marxist-leninist economic doctrine of State capitalism, rejects the State in the name of political and economic liberty. www.spunk.org /texts/pubs/llr/sp000367.txt   (1887 words)

The Demise of the Revolutionary Communist Party He carefully steered around his long-running central involvement with the RCP, saying that he had not been interested in party politics for the last seven years, that his last four books couldn’t be considered as Marxist, and that he considered himself a ‘libertarian humanist’. Marxism is all about revolution, ‘and of what relevance is that’, we are asked, when ‘the working-class movement has been consigned to the heritage museums and the only people likely to be storming palaces are tour parties of sad little pilgrims worshipping the ground that Princess Diana walked on’. Nor can I see any political or intellectual current in Britain adopting the former RCP as its think-tank in the way that New Labour has used the Marxism Today wing of the Communist Party of Great Britain. www.whatnextjournal.co.uk /Pages/Newint/Rcp.html   (236 words)

Articles - Marxism Marxism is the social theory and political practice based on the works of Karl Marx, a 19th century German philosopher, economist, journalist, and revolutionary, along with Friedrich Engels. Followers of the currents within Marxism which opposed Stalin, principally cohered around Leon Trotsky, tended to locate the failure at the level of the failure of world revolution: for communism to have succeeded, they argue, it needed to encompass all the international trading relationships that capitalism had previously developed. Since Marx's death in 1883, various groups around the world have appealed to Marxism as the theoretical basis for their politics and policies, which have often proved to be dramatically different and conflicting. www.mountainbikescenter.com /articles/Unreconstructed_Marxism   (3966 words)

The Libertarian Communist Home Page Anarchists are opposed to capitalism and the state, and they believe the working class must organize to overthrow capitalism and replace it with an egalitarian, libertarian system where each person's autonomy and individuality is fully realized and allowed to flourish, and human community and solidarity is fully realized. Three simmilar movements are known as council communism, autonomism (autonomist marxism) and the Situationist International. It is quite different from the Marxist-Leninist "communist" movement which did not initiate communism in the USSR and China but actualy a form of state capitalism, where the government, not the working people, controlled all property and production. www.geocities.com /CapitolHill/Embassy/8970   (3966 words)

What are the differences between Marxism and Anarchism? I am not talking about libertarian forms of Marxism which are close to Anarchism such as council communism or some forms of Autonomous Marxism. The debate was entitled "Marxism or Anarchism?" although it would have been better called "Leninism or Anarchism?" I've made a few clarification to the text at a few points in light of the subsequent contributions at the meeting, but the text is approximately 95% the same. Marxism, as Lenin made clear, does not aim for direct working class power, but power to the party, which we have to obey (or else!). www.struggle.ws /anarchism/writers/anarcho/left/marxismanarchism.html   (8476 words)

Libertarian Marxism's relation to anarchism - by Wayne Price NEFAC Marxism altogether (Curtis, 1997; Dunayevskaya, 1992; Glaberman, 1999; Rachleff, 1976). Autonomous Marxism, then, is weak in the same areas that much of anarchism is weak. Mainstream Marxism sees the historical process rolling on in an automatic way, stage following stage, antithesis following thesis, until capitalism has reached its final stage (optimistically referred to as "late capitalism" or "the last stage of capitalism"), to be inexorably followed by socialism and then communism. www.nefac.net /node/1156   (8476 words)

Libertarian Marxism's relation to anarchism - by Wayne Price NEFAC Mainstream Marxism sees the historical process rolling on in an automatic way, stage following stage, antithesis following thesis, until capitalism has reached its final stage (optimistically referred to as "late capitalism" or "the last stage of capitalism"), to be inexorably followed by socialism and then communism. In particular, Marxism shows the connection between the functioning of capitalism and the development of a working class capable of self-activity, moving toward the creation of a revolutionary socialist society. But Marxism, as Marxism, is not just a collection of concepts, which can be taken or left in bits. www.nefac.net /node/1156   (3143 words)

Srpska Mreza -- ITN, Independent, Vulliamy vs Truth -- Guardian, March 12 To flick casually through Living Marxism is to enter a curious universe defined by libertarian arguments and a crude anti-statism. At a Living Marxism rally held last week to raise funds for the magazine's defence of the forthcoming libel action, a heavily-accented Serbian announced blithely from the audience: "We have investigated the question of rape. There have been press conferences in London and Bonn at which Living Marxism has invited Deichmann to advance his thesis, something he does in the deadpan manner of a car salesman asked to demonstrate the merits of a new family saloon. www.srpska-mreza.com /guest/LM/lm-f97/guardian-m12.html   (2191 words)

Imprints vol. 1, no 1 (June 1996) Editor’s Notes Whilst analytical Marxism was gestating in the academy, the politics of the libertarian right was successfully inspiring politicians and commentators across the anglophone world. Partly that has taken the form of ‘analytical Marxism’, but in truth both its content and appeal have been broader than that, including many to whom one cannot easily attribute the Marxist label. And the concerns of these currents of thought have also been broader than the traditional Marxist concerns with class and state power including both gender and other forms of social division and a concern with wider structures of power and authority. mail.bris.ac.uk /~plcdib/notes.html   (550 words)

A Global Left, Printer Friendly Version The movement is an interesting mixture of ideas and tactics of Zapatismo, Italian autonomous Marxism, and libertarian influences. Perhaps the most interesting part of the social movements in Italy is represented by the movement “tutte bianche” (white overalls), who have since Genoa changed their name to Disobedienti. This movement, centered around unions and social centers, represents a continuity of the Marxist movement of the 1970s, “Autonomia Operaia.”Aantagonists promote the widening of social conflict, working in unions, struggle for the right of workers, anti-fascist campaigns, solidarity with Intifada, and anti-capitalist campaigns. zmagsite.zmag.org /Jan2003/grubacicprint0103.shtml   (1314 words)

Anarchism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Russell Means, a libertarian and leader in the American Indian Movement, has repeatedly stated that he is "an anarchist, and so are all [his] ancestors." Thus anarchism, as a political philosophy, is the belief that rulers and laws are unnecessary and should be abolished. 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. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Anarchism   (7022 words)
