postanarchism * poststructuralist anarchism

http:\/\/groups.yahoo.com\/group\/postanarchism<\/a>

This group is being created with the hopes of stirring things up within contemporary anarchist theory and praxis by synthesizing with it key concepts and ideas from critical theory, post-leftism, poststructuralism, situationism, postcolonialism, autonomism,

postmodernism, existentialism, postfeminism, zapatismo and other contemporary critical-theoretical tendencies. Potential anarchist theorists of interest might include Todd May, Mikhail Bakunin, Saul Newman, Emma Goldman, Luis Gambone, Max Stirner, Hakim Bey, Errico Malatesta, Wolfi Landstreicher, John Zerzan etc.   Parallels between the concepts and ideas of these and of theorists like Michel Foucault, Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari, Guy Debord, Giorgio Agamben, Jean Baudrillard, Manuel De Landa, Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri, Judith

Butler, Chris Hables Gray, Luce Irigaray, Donna Haraway etc. might be brought to the floor for consideration.   Discussion could include both theoretical and practical applicational aspects

of such syntheses; the title of the list \"postanarchism\" is a nod to Newman's call to move beyond classical anarchism into a more open and hybrid theory.<\/p>\n","contact":"","link":"","address":"","phone":"","parent_id":0,"mime_type":"text\/plain","summary":".","numcomment":16,"fileurl":"\/uploads\/","filesize":null,"article_url":"\/news\/2003\/02\/28882.php"},"attachments":[],"comments":[{"id":28891,"heading":"alienation?","article":"how bout getting some real community work done.... this is ridiculous mental masterbation.... we need alternatives now in the flesh... all this anarchist theory debate gets in the way of the most important elements of building community and resistance. everyday families can give a shit about these things, this is why anarchists and post anarchists arent getting anything done beyond charity food not bombs groups, conferences and informal organizations....\r\nlets move beyond anarchism, yes, but actually get work in the community done.... build bridges!","author":"ad","parent_id":28882,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2003-02-14 00:14:25","modified":"2003-02-14 00:14:25","fileurl":""},{"id":28894,"heading":"discussion is not the opposite of action","article":"Ok, what does going beyond anarchism look like?\r\nWhat sort of community work?\r\n\r\nCome on, some of the best activists in history have been great thinkers and readers too.

The reason the West is the source of all R & D in all fields of human endeavor is that the West engages in the Capitalist system. From automobiles to xerox machines, all innovation happens in the Capitalist West.\r\n\r\nHow about just one example? There is enough money from drug profits for drug companies to spend on developing new treatments for a myriad of diseases. How many are alive today because of this fact? We have to hear about the wonderful state of Cuban medicine, how Cuba under Castro has more doctors per capita than the United States. That may or may not be true, but tell me, can you name a unique Cuban medical procedure, device, or medicine? They don't innovate. Why?\r\n\r\nSimilarly, the tertiary sectors of an economy would not exist if we engaged in a system of barter. It gets somewhat difficult to run a little photo-booth sized flower shop when people want to pay with pies or pigs or pedicures. Your system of barter would render most tertiary sector jobs untenable. We would be back to agriculture and small manufacture.\r\n\r\nTell you what.
