People without Government: An Anthology of Anarchy door Harold Barclay
The topic of this book is central to my interests. But I found it a waste of time, little more than a dry literature review. The author has little to add of his own, and presents what he does with the arrogant tone of someone who demands agreement by virtue of his status as an "expert".
½Sisällys:
Preface by Alex Comfort; Introduction; I On the Nature of Anarchy; II Some Observations on Procedure; III Anarchy Among Hunter-Gatherers; IV Anarchist Gardeners; V Anarchist Herders; VI Anarchy in Agricultural Societes; VII Anarchy in the Modern World; Do Anarchic Polities have a Message?
Takakannesta: "Anarchy, as the absence of government, is neither chaos nor some impossible Utopian dream, in fact it is a very common form of political organisation and one which has characterised much of the human past. People Without Government describes briefly the anarchic political structures of a number of these societies. True they are mainly small-scale hunting, gathering and horticultural groups. However, the social organisation of certain large populations with complex relations is also sometimes anarchic. Thus anrchy applies to a broad spectrum of different kinds of societies."… (meer)
