Perpetual War is the Price of the State’s Existence
From No Selves, No Masters: Nondominational Dharma
I have been doing a deep dive on Mikhail Bakunin‘s philosophy. The Political Philosophy of Mikhail Bakunin, by G.P. Maximoff is an excellent resource. Most of Bakunin’s theoretical writings are scattered throughout various articles, letters, manifestoes and half-finished manuscripts, and as a result his theoretical contributions to anarchism are often overlooked. Maximoff’s book is a sort of “Bakunin mixtape” which collects and organizes all of his theoretical writings into a relatively coherent narrative.
