Essays in Anarchism and Religion

First volume of rigorous yet open-access research on anarchism and religion - seeking funding to cover production costs.

Here’s a kickstarter for a very interesting book on Anarchism and religion. Please help these guys get this project funded!

“Essays in Anarchism in Religion is a pioneering academic publishing project aiming to make first-rate scholarship freely accessible through a sustainable publishing model. Reflecting both a renewed interest in anarchism in the context of post-Marxist leftist politics, and the revival of religious ideas and movements in the political sphere, this book series examines the overlaps between anarchist ideas and activism, and religious thought and practice, from a diverse range of perspectives. Central to this project, therefore, is the idea that original, socially critical, scholarship should be freely available.

Uniting scholars from a variety of disciplines and a host of countries, the series adopts a rigorous process of peer-review to ensure the quality of its scholarship, while focusing on making this research freely available to all. The first volume comprises nine essays from contributors based in Finland, Norway, Spain, the United Kingdom and the United States, with topics ranging from ‘was the historical Jesus anarchist?’ to Zen Buddhism and the philosophies of Max Stirner and Pierre-Joseph Proudhon.”

Chlorophyll Prints by Binh Danh: An Interview

In the work of Binh Danh, art is space for the unnamed to be seen. When war is the theme every detail counts. How does one person tackle this massive issue, where death and the value of lives intersect? A one-man job becomes a job about other men. And so for his series “Immortality: The Remnants of the Vietnam and American War” he made chlorophyll prints to express the indelible mark of war on various lands. Soldiers and laymen whose faces and records have been archived are given another chance to be remembered.

“To be delivered from the throes of evolution, man [sic] must either lose himself in God, or, as a being, erect and free, become his own master.”

Can you recommend anything you've read or watched to someone who's completely new to socialism, anarchism etc?

Of course. First some books: I’d recommend you reading “On Anarchism” (Noam Chomsky), “Demanding The Impossible: A History Of Anarchism” (Peter Marshall), “Homage To Catalonia” and “Animal Farm” (George Orwell). Also there’s an online PDF version of Daniel Guérins “No Gods No Masters,” which is a 700 pages overview dealing with nearly everything in regard to anarchism. I don’t know the link, but you should find it easily.

An amazing website is the Anarchist FAQ: http://www.infoshop.org/AnAnarchistFAQ. It covers anything you could actually think of and is peppered with many original quotes from the great thinkers of anarchism, such as Bakunin, Proudhon, Kropotkin and many others.

Also, if someone else has some recommendations, feel free to reblog this post with them.

Cindy Milstein's Anarchism and Its Aspirations is a short, accessible introduction.

"That is the spirit of anarchism, the ghost that haunts humanity: that our lives and communities really can be appreciably better. And better, and then better still."
