Don't we see today the exact manifestation of all of this? And perhaps glimpses of the way forward?

@cinemacrayne4933 2 жыл бұрын

Yes, I believe the social ecological potentialities Bookchin lays out can be further cultivated by society and individuals. Projects like Cooperation Jackson and democratic confederalism in Rojava. In a hegelian sense I think we can manifest progress towards ideas like Post-scarcity Anarchism.

40.31 “To new technologies that will harmonize humanity’s relationship with the natural world. And new psychic and personal relationships, as well as a new integration of free personalities, which would overcome the splits between mind and labor, between conscious and unconscious. And finally, the elimination of all those institutions of hierarchy, and the restoration again of a new animism, a new way of looking at experience … that will restore again that long legacy in the human experience, the I/Thou relationship instead of the I/It relationship.”

Haven't fully listen to it yet (gotta move for now, sadly), but I'm curious, what's your favorite book from Bookchin ? Why ? (there's no wrong answer to intimate questions)

Bookchin, at the end of his life, fell out with his followers: "In the wake of the lifestyle anarchism fight, Murray was exhausted. In 1996 he was seventy-five years old. The intractable and unwavering anarchist rejection of libertarian municipalism demoralized him, and the attacks by the lifestyle anarchists were personally discouraging. No one seemed to stand up for him, to take his part. He felt alone and misunderstood, a man out of his time, even a relic from another era." theanarchistlibrary.org/library/janet-biehl-bookchin-breaks-with-anarchism.html

More like an old man got bullied by a bunch of hypocritical posers. I believe it's unimportant what embarrassment Murray Bookchin suffered at the hands of whoever, whenever. What's important are his ideas, and that they are preserved understood, and further enhanced.

@legalfictionnaturalfact3969 3 жыл бұрын

that's not "breaking with anarchism". that's holding fast to anarchism no matter the opposition.

@@legalfictionnaturalfact3969 Yup, and it always boggles my mind that there are / were people who claim to be "anarchist" who can't see that. Bookchin called them dogmatists and I don't consider that inaccurate or inflammatory.

Post scarcity, and some people say anarchism isn't overly optimistic. 😄 "Pacifically and harmoniously.... eliminated" Today analogical tigers, tomorrow the world? Lol. No never, not actually. New arguments would develop about why the tiger eating your flesh is very bad for the "community". Eliminate power? or even its appearance? With what pray tell? Good intentions.... 🤣🤪🤭😵☠

The Hopi would not, perhaps, have left the earth and traveled to the stars. Murray asserts the age old desire for humans to "Get Back To The Garden", a modern Luddite, a true regressive thinker full of nostalgia for a time that only exists in his fantastical imagined truth.

He quite obviously states he's a communist if you read his work. But you obviously never would, thinking of Lenin and Marx and Stalin when you think of Communism, and not once mentioning Kropotkin, Bookchin, and Bakunin.

Is he not a libertarian communist , which is essentially anarchist? Who gives a fuck anyway. He’s promoting the idea of anarchism as a remedy to the vast majority of western society’s problems, and he’s right to do so
