"What Happened to the Anarchist Century?" (2021)

"What Happened to the Anarchist Century?", Z Network (February 15, 2021)
  • Anarchists like to blame the ruthlessness of capitalists and their cronies for their failures – or the backstabbing of Marxists.
  • If anarchists want to be revolutionaries, they need to present models of revolution that differ from the Leninist one but are more substantial than the hope for some kind of historical magic.
  • The political strength of a term comes from its application. No appliers, no strength.
  • Anarchists will in all likelihood not lead a revolution in the near future – or ever, considering the paradox implicit in the idea itself.
