The presentation is about ANARCHISM and the Principles of ANARCHISM.

1. anarch

2. ―…the name given to a principle or theory of life and conduct
under which society is conceived without government-
harmony in such a society being obtained, not by submission
to law or by obedience to any authority, but by free
agreements concluded between the various groups, territorial
and professional, freely constituted for the sake of production
and consumption, as also for the satisfaction of the infinite
variety of needs and aspirations of a civilized being.‖

over another is the cause of most of our contemporary
problems.‖

10. Anti-Authoritarianism. Anarchists are extremely
skeptical about the need for any kind of authority. At
minimum all anarchists believe that hierarchy should
be abolished and some take this further and oppose
other forms of authority. Instead of
hierarchy, everyone should have control over their own
life and an equal say in group decisions.
Free Association. Everyone should be allowed to
associate freely with those they choose and to
disassociate themselves when they choose. Individuals
should not be forced into social relations against their
will. Society should be based upon free
agreement, rather than coercion.

11. Mutual Aid. Instead of attempting to dominate each
other, social relations should be based on solidarity and
voluntary cooperation. When individuals come
together to help each other they can accomplish more
than when they work against each other.
Freedom. Freedom means the ability to control one's
own life instead of being controlled by others, as is the
case with hierarchy. This is sometimes called liberty or
autonomy. Controlling other people's lives is not
freedom but a restriction of freedom.

12. Self-Management. In groups decisions should be made in a
manner so that everyone has an equal say. People should
govern themselves, rather than dividing people into some
who give orders and some who obey as in hierarchical
organizations.
Radical Egalitarianism. Anarchists believe in an egalitarian
society. This does not mean some totalitarian society where
everyone is identical or lives identical lives. It does not mean
denying individual diversity or uniqueness. Rather anarchists
believe in equality of both wealth and power - a natural
consequence of the abolition of hierarchy.
Feminism. Anarchists favor social, economic and political
equality for men and women. The domination of men over
women should be abolished and all people given control of
their own lives.

Green anarchism

Feminist anarchism
Anarcho-capitalism

16. Anarcho-primitivism is an anarchist critique of the
origins and progress of civilization. Primitivists argue that
the shift from hunter-gatherer to agricultural subsistence
gave rise to social stratification, coercion, and alienation.
They advocate a return to non-"civilized" ways of life
through deindustrialization, abolition of division of labor or
specialization, and abandonment of technology.
Christian anarchism is the belief that there is only one
source of authority to which Christians are ultimately
answerable, the authority of God as embodied in the
teachings of Jesus. Christian anarchists therefore feel that
earthly authority such as government, or indeed the
established church do not and should not have power over
them.

17. Green anarchism opposes the existence of civilization
and technology.
Crypto-anarchism is an online philosophy that
expounds the use of strong public key cryptography to
enforce privacy and therefore individual freedom.
Cryptoanarchists aim to create encrypted virtual
communities where everyone is
absolutely anonymous or pseudonymous. Crypto-
anarchists believe that inside their communities is the
only place where they can be totally free, because in all
other communities there will always be someone that
will listen at what you say and know who you are.

18. Feminist anarchism Radical feminism espouses belief
that patriarchy is a fundamental problem in our society.
They believe that the first form of oppression occurred
in the dominance of male over female.
Anarcho-capitalism to be a consistent version of
capitalism, where the state in its current form would no
longer exist. Anarcho-capitalists state that an employer-
employee relationship may be a mutually profitable
form of voluntary association. They resent government
as a parasite that corrupts, biases, impedes and distorts
what would otherwise be peaceful fair and free
associations.

19. Collectivist anarchism
-19thcentury anarchist doctrine that
advocated the abolition of the state
and private ownership of the means of
production, with the means of production
instead being owned collectively and
controlled and managed by the producers
themselves
a) Communist Anarchism
b) Anarcho Syndicalism

20. Communist
anarchism

21. a) Communist Anarchism
―…communist without
government, free communism. It is a
synthesis of the two chief aims
prosecuted by humanity since the
dawn of its history– economic
freedom and political freedom.‖

22. In common with all socialists, the
anarchists hold that the private
ownership of land, capital and
machinery has had its time; that it is
condemned to disappear; and that all
requisites for production must, and
will, become the common property of
society, and be managed in common
by the producers of wealth.

23. In common with the most advanced
representatives of political radicalism, they
maintain that the ideal of the political
organization of society is a condition of
things where the functions of the
government are reduced to a
minimum, and the individual recovers his
full liberty of initiative and action for
satisfying, by means of free groups and
federations- freely constituted-all the
infinitely varied needs of the human being.
The ultimate aim of society is the reduction
of the functions of government to nil– that
is, to a society without government, to An-
archy.

24. -main premise: ―…coercion in any
form is bad.‖
-it suggests that the establishment of a
series of small, voluntary communes or
collectives is the solution to the problem of
order in a society without a government.
This communes would join together into a
federation to deal with any common
problems.

25. The village would appoint delegates to the
regional federations, which in turn would
appoint delegates to the national
federations. No delegate would have the
power to speak for anything but the
decisions of the workers who elected
him, and would be subject to recall
anytime.
-George Woodcock

26. Anarcho-
syndicalism

27. Anarcho syndicalism
Anarcho-syndicalists take essentially the
same approach as Anarcho-communists
does except that they refer specifically to
the work situation, particularly industrial
work.
Its primary aim is the end of the wage
system.

28. Basic principles:
1) Each industry is organized into a
federation of independent communes /
workers solidarity
2) Each industry is controlled by workers in
that industry / self management
3) Policy questions and questions of
intercommune relations are handled by a
coordinating council / direct action

29. The central element of anarcho-
syndicalism is workers control. Society is
organized on the basis of the control of
each
industry by the workers
in that industry.

30. Putting the workers in control will enable
them to produce more, thus lessening the
problem of the allocation of scarce goods.
Putting workers in control also acts as a
work incentive.

31. Anarcho-syndicalism is more directly concerned with
the organization of industry than is communist
anarchism, but both arrive at fundamentally the same
conclusions.
Both accept the notion that workers in a given area
should control operations in that area for the benefit of
the society as a whole. It is assumed in both cases that
the entire population will be workers, at least to the
extent that everyone will participate to some degree in
the economic life of the society. Both believe that by
removing coercion, a viable society can develop. The
primary difference is found in the emphasis in Anarcho-
Syndicalism on the operation of the industrial system.

32. The primary focus of collectivist anarchism is not
isolated individual. The focus is an individual
within a non-coercive society. The emphasis on
producing a society that will allow individual
freedom.
Most anarchists recognize that the small
commune or industry is not sufficient for
individuals in contemporary society. Some
cooperation among communes and industries is
necessary to produce enough goods in sufficient
diversity for each individual.

33. There must be a high degree of cooperation among
industries to provide an efficient distribution system for
the goods produced by the individual industries. The
only way to handle this is through cooperation by the
workers within the various industries. What is looked
for here is simply a form of enlightened self-
interest, because each worker in a particular industry
needs the products of a wide variety of industries.
Therefore the individual workers will cooperate with
workers from many other industries since they all need
the products of each and every industry. AS believe this
cooperation can be developed readily once coercion
disappears.

34. In order to do this, all coercion must be abolished. This
means government and, for the collectivist
anarchist, capitalism must go. Since there must be
some way of getting rid of them, this raises the
question of violence. Anarchists believe no established
authority will simply give up a fight;
therefore, revolution is likely to be the means of
change. The abolition of capitalism is a central concern
for most anarchists because they believe workers are
exploited by the capitalists in about the same ways
Marx did. Collectivist anarchists argue for common
ownership of the means of production and the
distribution of goods according to need.

35. Individualist
Anarchism

36. The individualist anarchist recognizes
nothing above his ego and rebels
against all disciplines and all
authority, divine or human. He
accepts no morality and when he
gives himself to the feelings of
love, friendship, or sociability, he does
so because it is a personal need, an
egoistic satisfaction—because
it pleases him to do it.

37. Individualist anarchists do not
completely reject cooperation. They
argue that cooperation is essential for
the fulfillment of some needs. But
they contend that only the
individualist of their own definition is
capable of genuinely forming a
voluntary association with others. In
addition, they never see this
association as an end itself but merely
as useful for a temporary purpose. It
must be the servant of the
members, not dominate the members
