  Anarchism and the arts - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The influence of anarchism is not always directly a matter of specific imagery or public figures, but may be seen in a certain stance towards the liberation of the total human being and the imagination.
In the late 20th century, anarchism and the arts could primarily be associated with the collage works by James Koehnline, Johan Humyn Being, and others, whose work was being published in anarchist magazines, including Anarchy: A Journal of Desire Armed and Fifth Estate.
Anarchism has traditionally emphasized the liberation of the imagination and subjectivity from the constraints of the present social order, so it is no surprise that many anarchists are attracted to the work of the surrealists.

 Anarchism - Article from FactBug.org - the fast Wikipedia mirror site
Anarchism is a term which encompasses a variety of political philosophies, social movements, and political ideologies that advocate the abolition of all forms of imposed or involuntary authority including social hierarchy and coercive power.
Proponents of anarchism argue that relations based upon voluntary cooperation and mutual aid will lead to a society characterized by the ability of each actor to have a say in outcomes proportionate to the degree they are affected by them, a society consisting of free individuals.
Individual freedom and opposition to the state are the unvarying principles of anarchism; less agreed upon are such matters as the role of violence in changing society, the preferred type of economic system, hierarchy and social status, the interpretation of egalitarian ideals, and the degree of organization, manner of incentive and the division of labour.

Anarchism is a generic term describing various political philosophies and social movements that advocate the elimination of the state.
Anarchism has a broader series of definitions of the state, ranging from the bourgeois state formation of army, bureaucracy, and representative parliament, to an idea of the state as a monopoly of violence.
Anarchism had a large influence on French Symbolism of the late 19th century, such as that of Mallarme, who was quoting as saying "La vraie bombe c'est le livre" (the true bomb is the book) and infiltrated the cafes and cabarets of turn of the century Paris (see the Drunken Boat #2).

 Anarchism and Revolution in Black Africa - Anarchist People of Color   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
The Kikuyu's land was seized for the use of white settlers and the fls forced to work as wage slaves; compulsory labor and taxation supplemented this, as the colonial administrators openly admitted, and provided as well, free construction and education funds for the privileged whites.
This worked in the North among the Emirs, who unlike the Ibo had a state at the time of conquest; the British merely seized this state and were easily able to consolidate their authority.
Thorough and intensive work was therefore needed to mobilise them." Cabral contrasts them with "the Balantes and the groups without any defined form of state organisation": they "put up much more resistance against the Portuguese than the others, and they have maintained intact their tradition of resistance to colonial penetration.

 ABC of Anarchism - By Alexander Berkman
Anarchism means that you should be free; that no one should enslave you, boss you, rob you, or impose upon you.
Anarchism is the ideal of such a condition; of a society without force and compulsion, where all men shall be equals, and live in freedom, peace, and harmony.
It is to them that Anarchism makes the strongest appeal; it is they who, first and foremost, must work for the new day that is to give them back their inheritance and bring liberty and well-being, joy and sunshine to the whole of mankind.

These are concepts which, although not exclusive to anarchism, are significant in historical and/or modern anarchist circles.
(It should be noted that the anarchist milieu is philosophically heterogeneous and there is disagreement over which of these concepts should play a role in anarchism.)
The following list is a collection of "-isms" embraced by segments of the anarchist milieu:

As such anarchism opposes all forms of hierarchical control - be that control by the state or a capitalist - as harmful to the individual and their individuality as well as unnecessary.
Anarchism, therefore, is a political theory that aims to create a society which is without political, economic or social hierarchies.
Anarchism unites critical analysis with hope, for, as Bakunin pointed out, "the urge to destroy is a creative urge." One cannot build a better society without understanding what is wrong with the present one.

 Chomsky on Anarchism
Perhaps because they regard his analytical work with such respect, they anticipate he will lay out his goals and strategy with similar precision and clarity, only to be disappointed with his generalized statements of libertarian socialist values.
I tend to agree that anarchism is formless and utopian, though hardly more so than the inane doctrines of neoliberalism, Marxism-Leninism, and other ideologies that have appealed to the powerful and their intellectual servants over the years, for reasons that are all too easy to explain.
Anarchism, in my view, is an expression of the idea that the burden of proof is always on those who argue that authority and domination are necessary.

 General Introduction for MECW
Such works, and also the rough versions and drafts of individual works the final texts of which are published in the body of a given volume, will usually be grouped together in a special section under the heading “From the Preparatory Materials”.
The work of Marx and Engels on various newspapers, and their activities in various organisations, will be one of the main subjects of the notes.

 Bakunin and the Historians
Masters is friendlier to his subject (but sees anarchism as at best a beautiful but impractical dream), but draws almost entirely upon English-language sources, especially Carr, and is written more in the style of a novel than a work of history.
The resulting works are generally more readable than are their scholarly counterparts, though some readers prefer (or need) the deleted material in order to place Bakunin's writings in their specific, historical context, which often shaped not only the concerns addressed but also the form they took.
Clearly she was unfamiliar with Bakunin's "Manifesto of the Russian Revolutionary Association to the Oppressed Women of Russia" (excerpted in Dolgoff), of his defense of his sister's right to escape a love-less marriage, etc. Similarly, recent writers in the anarchist press have attributed a wide variety of conflicting economic views to Bakunin.

 A "Political" Program for Anarchists
The FBI has hinted in its literature that right-wing groups too "obsessed" with the constitution, or with monitoring the actions of federal law enforcement, may be added to the list of "terrorists." As Morris Dees and Chuck Schumer have said, it's dangerous when people don't trust their government.
The future of anarchism, if there is one, will at best, involve a few thousand people, as individuals or small groups, in larger libertarian-decentralist organizations.
It's amazing how creative and thrifty ordinary people can be when they're spending their own money, instead of stolen loot.

 Feminism&Anarchy   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
The earliest works on 'the woman question' criticized the restrictive role of women without necessarily claiming that women were disadvantaged or that men were to blame.
When childcare and housework are taken into consideration, women work longer than men in both the industrialised and developing world, (by 20 percent in the industrialised world, and 30 percent in the developing world).
Early works indicate that he was much impressed by the argument that one's gender identity is a social construct, but in later works he develops a highly nuanced account of all the inputs that research implicates in the formation of any individual's gender identity.

A Marxist might be forgiven for viewing corporate liberalism as a domestic form of imperialism, with the white working class being bribed with super-profits from exploiting the fl domestic colonial population.
The one really good thing about the left-end of the blogosphere is that there is a huge, completely open forum for anyone to bring up their ideas for conversation.

 Michael Bakunin by James Guillaume
In this work he proposed that revolutionary Slavs unite with the revolutionaries of other nations – Hungarians, Germans, Italians – to overthrow the three major autocracies of the time: the Russian Empire, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and the Kingdom of Prussia; this would be followed by the free federation of the emancipated Slavic peoples.
Bakunin’s ideas about the situation facing French workers and the means that should be employed to save France and the cause of liberty were expressed by him in a small pamphlet which appeared anonymously, in September 1870, under the title Letters to a Frenchman on the Present Crisis.
This work made a deep impression in Italy, and produced among the youth and the workers of Italy a climate of opinion which gave birth, toward the end of 1871, to many new sections of the International.

About $30 but definitely worth it, even if like me you are not a "real musician" as the subheading says.
