The philosophical roots of the Marx-Bakunin conflict by Ann Robertson

[Bright Banana Beard]

I think some of you while want to read it as is it an article about political differences between Bakunin and Marx, which correlated to the anarchist-Marxist split in the First International. Since it is too long to read, the link is just below.

Thanks for this, but I think it is in the wrong section -- it should be in Theory.

[Hit The North]

Moved it.

I should probably reread this sometime, as I have not read it for some time...perhaps in a couple of years or so.

I have met the article's author a couple of times. I don't know her very well, but she seems interesting.

Really interesting article. Perhaps we anarchists/socialists are still talking at cross purposes. I admire and respect the anarchists I personally know, but my gut (and what I know re him) tells me that Bakunin was an evil pig of a man.

Maybe he was. However what makes you think such a thing?

[Incendiarism]

Well, he did make antisemitic remarks at times. Nice link, I'll bookmark for later when I'm alone and able to read peacefully.
