Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Impossibilities of Anarchism Some years ago, as the practical policy of the Socialist party in England began to shape itself more and more definitely into the program of Social-Democracy, it became apparent that we could not progress without the gravest violations of principles of all sorts. In particular, the democratic side of the program was found to be incompatible with the sacred principle of the Autonomy of the Individual. It also involved a recognition of the State, an institution altogether repugnant to the principle of Freedom. Worse than that, it involved compromise at every step; and principles, as Mr. John Morley once eloquently showed, must not be compromised. The result was that many of us fell to quarrelling; refused to associate with one another; denounced each other as trimmers or Impossibilists, according to our side in the controversy; and finally succeeded in creating a considerable stock of ill-feeling. My own side in the controversy was the unprincipled one, as Socialism to me has always meant, not a principle, but certain definite economic measures which I wish to see taken. Indeed, I have often been reproached for limiting the term Socialism too much to the economic side of the great movement towards equality. That movement, however, appears to me to be as much an Individualist as a Socialist one; and though there are Socialists, like Sir William Harcourt, to whom Socialism means the sum total of humanitarian aspiration, in which the transfer of some millions of acres of property from private to public ownership must seem but an inessential and even undesirable detail, this sublimer shade of Socialism suffers from such a lack of concentration upon definite measures, that, but for the honor and glory of the thing, its professors might as well call themselves Conservatives. Now what with Socialists of this sort, and persons who found that the practical remedy for white slavery was incompatible with the principle of Liberty, and the practical remedy for despotism incompatible with the principle of Democracy, and the practical conduct of politics incompatible with the principle of Personal Integrity (in the sense of having your own way in everything), the practical men were at last driven into frank Opportunism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Confessions of an Anarchist Association with Anarchists is not calculated to inspire one with feelings of love for such people. Rather the contrary. Lamartine, the historian, in a fit of disgust on witnessing some extra revolting spectacle of man's inhumanity to man, is said to have exclaimed The more I see of my fellow-creatures the more I respect my dog. Substitute Anarchists for fellow creatures, and the phrase admirably sums up my sentiments regarding the preachers and promoters of Anarchy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anarchism: A Criticism and History of the Anarchist Theory ON the day of the bomb outrage in the French Parlia ment I gave an impromptu discourse upon Anarchism to an intelligent audience, anxious to know more about it, touching upon its intellectual ancestry, its doctrines, propaganda, the lines of demarcation that separate it from Socialism and Radicalism, and so forth. The impression, which my explanations of it made upon my audience, was at the same time flattering and yet painful to me. I felt almost ashamed that I had told these men, who represented the pick of the middle class political electorate, something entirely new to them in speaking of matters which, considering their reality and the importance of the question, ought to be familiar to every citizen. Having thus had my attention drawn to this lacuna in the public mind, I was induced to make a. Survey of the most diverse circles of the political and social world, both of readers and writers, and the result was the resolve to extend my previous studies of Anarchism (which had not extended much beyond the earliest theorists), and to develop my lecture into a book. This book I now present to my readers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Anarchism written by Carissa Honeywell and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2021-01-28 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is it possible to abolish coercion and hierarchy and build a stateless, egalitarian social order based on non-domination? There is one political tradition that answers these questions with a resounding yes: anarchism. In this book, Carissa Honeywell offers an accessible introduction to major anarchist thinkers and principles, from Proudhon to Goldman, non-domination to prefiguration. She helps students understand the nature of anarchism by examining how its core ideas shape important contemporary social movements, thereby demonstrating how anarchist principles are relevant to modern political dilemmas connected to issues of conflict, justice and care. She argues that anarchism can play a central role in tackling our major global problems by helping us rethink the essentially militarist nature of our dominant ideas about human relationships and security. Dynamic, urgent, and engaging, this new introduction to anarchist thought will be of great interest to both students as well as thinkers and activists working to find solutions to the multiple crises of capitalist modernity.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anarchy or Order: Twelve Papers for the Times Among the forty millions of born Englishmen, born Irishmen, born Scotsmen and born Welsh men probably few theoretical anarchists could be found. The anarchists of the United Kingdom, almost without exception, are undesirable aliens who brought their anarchism with them to our shores. But, while anarchist doctrine is rarely held or preached by British men and women, anarchist modes of thinking and living are en countered every day, in all ranks and conditions of society. I want it, so I will have it or I hate it, so I won't do it or What other people think is no concern of mine or I mean to live my own life in my own way or Let the man next door take care of himself and I will take care of myself - these and similar sayings are being uttered, not as the pert boast ings of an affected egoism, but as deliberate axioms by which to make the most and best of life. And what is far worse, they are not only spoken but acted upon with a thoroughness which outruns mere selfishness and becomes downright Anarchy. And out of so much an archist practice, anarchist doctrine is sure to arise if the practice be not exposed and con demned and corrected.
