Update on the Laurance Labadie Archival Project

From Center for a Stateless Society by Eric Fleischmann

Things are at a bit of a standstill with the Laurance Labadie Archival Project, and this is mainly due to the fact that on top of all the other work I’m doing I simply do not have the time or energy to transcribe, edit, and respond to each of his works. The last of these efforts was intended for me to be able to immerse myself (as much as is possible) in the kind of discourse that Labadie himself was doing: a back and forth between lay philosophers and political theorists in publicly available magazines. And I stand by this effort as it has allowed me to engage with Labadie in a way that feels very personal.

Laurance Labadie’s “Anarchism Applied to Economics”

Announcing: The Laurance Labadie Archival Project

While Anarchism is, in one sense, not a constructed philosophy, that is, not a “system,” anarchists stand firm “constructively” in the position above stated. What form voluntary associations which anarchists contemplate will take, remains for the future to evince. Anarchism primarily, is not an economic arrangement but a social philosophy based upon the conclusion that man is happy and independent in proportion to the freedom he experiences and can maintain.

Appeal from the CIRA library

[Appeal from the International Center for Research on Anarchism (CIRA)]

Dear friends,

The four walls of CIRA's library in Lausanne, Switzerland, hold one of the largest collections of documents on the anarchist movement. Unfortunately, those four walls will not extend. We’ve exhausted our creative strategies in building scaffolds, covering every inch of spare wall playing a huge game of tetris. This, of course, has an impact on our project and its acquisition policy. This is why the team at CIRA is launching an 'anarchitecture contest' to engage everyone in a collective brainstorming on how we can make this place live for as long as possible beyond the physical barriers we confront.

Cyberspace: Archive of Linksunten Indymedia Published Online

from anarchists worldwide

“The resistance is global… a trans-pacific collaboration has brought this web site into existence.”

that’s how the first article on seattle.indymedia.org started on November 24th 1999. By forming the Indymedia network, we put journalism and press work about our actions and protests back into our own hands. With Indymedia, the anti-globalisation movement testified that a different and empowering “globalisation” in solidarity is possible.

“Hard times demand independent media…”

wrote those who started linksunten.indymedia.org in their foundation statement.
