critique of post-anarchism
--poli-sci: politics
--philo: philosophy
--poststructuralism & postmodernism
--discursivity, impossible normativity; against essentialism or ontology (human nature) and pro epistemological infinite regression
critique of anarchism-morality/ethics
anarchism of/as critique
--critique-negativity
--performativity-suspension-hypothesization-as if or what if
--not not that isn't strightforward affirmative; positive (archy), negative (non-archy), and hypothetical (an-archy)
--an-anarchy, or reflexivity that denies itself in confirming itself, or built-in unstabilizer
historiographical, or historico-theoretical
--away from ventriloquism (speaking for X, or make/force X speak what we want X to speak)
--problematization (foucault), why anarchy-ism proliferates in L19C, anachism in history as questions and answers which didn't materialize, didn't even attempt to do so
--obvious, limits, blindness, or trivial-marginal-inbetween that glues functional parts (ex. mutual aid)
--dialectiral presentation of history, or history-past that isn't completed yet (benjamin)
--virtualities in history, or how the new, the not-yet is conceived/glimpsed/grasped/revealed (bloch)
--read history backward to move forward; historiography (not) as wishfulfilment and daydreamning
--history and writing of/on history (certeau)
--history-historiography as critical practice (subaltern, guha, chakravarty); suppressed by history, repressed by historiography, disfigured by theory-western thinking patterns
--excess b/w history and historiography, what is written and writing (subject and text); gap that is being bridged, discrepancy that is being traced, rift that is being satured
anarchist formatin of anarchic life and aspiration at the turn of 19c
intro
history-historiography, or why anachism requires anarchic methodology; anachism and its own historicization, or anachist search for origins that always fail or become dubious and obscure, beginning without beginning or beginnings that have already begun, already and/but not yet
c1 an-archism, or affirming lackness that is alternatively relating itself/others/collectively in a minor mode
rereading classical anarchism (proudhon, bakunin, kropotkin / stirner), or why it problematizes state and anarchy, marginal and trivial, individuation and association; anarchism and marxism with small letters, or their interminglings (cf. sectarian histories of the first international, reformists-revisionists' attack on anarchism (engels, kautsyky, plekhanov), ambiguous allies (fabian, guild socialism/social credit, french socialism, american labor/socialist movement; indigenous traditions that appropriate something named anachism)
c2 naturalist life, biologically bound and imaginatively chaotic/uncontrolled
zola, or toward para-science, imaginary of life, biological and social, when society can no longer console it; cruelty, indifference, and non-human/inhuman vitality of life that goes beyond individuals, intersubjective and generation-to-generation; rougon-macquart (germinal, l'argent, debacle, pascal); american naturalism (short digression, or common imaginary of life, romance, and beyond society-human-science
c3 materialist life, sociological/synchronic mapping and narrative/genalogical speculation
anarchism and utopianism; emergence of vitalism-irrationalism-mysticism; studies of religions, myths, rituals; studies of inner mind, psychology, group/collective psychology, psychoanalysis; anarcho-utopianism as narrative counterpart-critique of reality; narration as speculative (re)presentation of how our life could be otherwise, if social life were constituted in different manners with different institutions that distribute work and soul more properly, more economically, more functionally; bellamy-morris, nietzsche-gbs (long life and becoming wise-stuopid, education through narrative), darwin - freud (immaterialism that is vital(ist)), frazer-durhkeim-w james-mauss-bergson, or biological speculation/widly reasonable-reasonably wild imagination predicated on "science" understood in a weak, broad, and dubious-obscure sense
c4 social life, how an anarchist lives her life, case study of emma goldman
