 . The Postanarchism Listserv This group is being created with the hopes of stirring things up within contemporary anarchist theory and praxis by synthesizing with it concepts and ideas from critical theory, poststructuralism, phenomenology, situationism, postcolonialism, autonomism, postmodernism, existentialism, postfeminism, zapatismo, postleftism, queer theory and other contemporary critical-theoretical tendencies. Potential anarchist theorists of interest include Osugi Sakae, Todd May, Jacques Ellul, Bakunin, Rolando Perez, Shifu, Saul Newman, Emma Goldman, Ricardo Flores Magon, Luis Gambone, Max Stirner, Andrew Koch, Tolstoy, Hakim Bey, Bhagat Singh, Malatesta, Wolfi Landstreicher, Sam Mbah and Proudhon. Parallels between the ideas of these thinkers and of theorists like Reiner Schurmann, Edward Said, Merleau-Ponty, Julia Kristeva, Foucault, Deleuze and Guattari, Luce Irigaray, Subcommandante Marcos, Guy Debord, Sartre, Paul Virilio, Giorgio Agamben, Baudrillard, Manuel De Landa, Homi Bhabha, Heidegger, Hardt and Negri, Judith Butler, Claude Lefort, Horkheimer and Adorno, Chris Hables Gray, Donna Haraway, Derrida, George Katsiaficas, Neitzsche and Ian Angus are all on topic. Discussion includes both theoretical and practical aspects of such syntheses; which includes contemporary movements imbued with an antiauthoritarian sensibility but not a specifically "anarchist" ideological-historical commitment as well as more explicitly anarchist projects as well. The title of the list "postanarchism" is not a sign that signifies a new ideology to rally the troops around but is rather a nod to Newman's call to move beyond the limitations of classical anarchist ideologies into more open, pluralistic and hybrid "anarchistic" critical theories - in other words, a virtual paradigm shift toward a post-normal anarchism, not at all unlike that which has occurred with the post-normal science movement of Funtowicz and Ravetz or the post-Marxist movement of Laclau and Mouffe. |

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6one long debate being on the nature and "need" for a "national anarchic theory".
=?¿?¿?¿? quite right, dodgy and prob. a front for ideas more trad. thought of as being "extreme right".
But don't take my word for it, join the group.
¿wot u make of dis?
go to the link, read the article, admire the html and the persistance (these people publish two-three files a day, and they translate them! into español, indeed a lot of español North American stuff enamates from this group).
emenates? eminem.
think is the "Bush Deficit" so great?
could it possibly be the $44 trillion referred to at the link?
Now I rarely speak of trillions coz they hurt the head, but I tell you pals and foes alike, the planet only generates a taxed income of about $44trillion. So what is this group about?
Honestly if someone could explain to me I'd be giggling.
thats not true at all, the list administrator kicked off the national anarchists who joined right when they presented themselves and they havent been heard from in almost a year! there have been absolutely no discussions of the sort – this is a list for those anarchists who are tired of watching the movement slide into mirror images of the alphabet soup marxist parties (iso, rcp, swp, etc.) rather than doing what anarchists do best - challenging and dismantling all forms of authority and domination.

not you guys again, these people pop up all the time on british lists it seems or around green anarchist circles. thinly veiled international third positionist fascists with a green/primitivist bent. nothing to do with internationalism.
the poster for the National A. went on to bait,

All this is on CD.
so you will see the moderator didn't kick them off the list.
do ·not· doubt me.
I did say "join the list & see for yourself", but I _·do·_ think it only fair to warn my pals that unsavoury elements are in that room.
:-)
anarchism is dead, long live anarchism!
and no mention of Hobbes.
A strange and telling omission.
