| Résumé : |
Proposition 1: 'You can't talk about THE anarchism.'
Prop. 2: 'Anarchism asserts that it is possible that everyone determines what everybody does.'
Prop. 3: 'The enumeration of the advantages of democracy always compares democracy to dictatorship.'
Prop. 4: 'All advantages of democracy are of course the same advantages of anything better than dictatorship.'
Prop. 5: 'Evidently something called democracy can already be said to exist when a substantial part of life, like industry, isn't arranged democratically, thus when there are still all sorts of dictatorial features present.'
Prop. 6: 'In democracies all decisions always have something mediocre about them.'
Prop. 7: 'It is possible that people are anarchists for most of the time, but the moment they are throwing a bomb they aren't engaged with anarchism.'
Prop. 8: 'Anarchism has no ways to stem the tide of fascist scribblings and has no ways to stop an extreme pain in the neck.'
Prop. 9: 'Because anarchism doesn't give a solution for everything, it doesn't mean anarchism offers no solution to anything.'
Prop. 10: 'Where conflicting opinions are side by side, chaos can easily occur.'
Prop. 11: 'Where anarchism and chaos go hand in hand you can speak of a variant of apathy that characterizes many non-anarchist people.'
Prop. 12: 'Leaving opinions side by side has rather more to do with liberalism than with anarchism.'
Prop. 13: 'Sending criticism into the world is the only way anarchist people have to tackle excesses like fascism.'
Prop. 14: 'Moralism, if existing at all, can't be part of anarchist people.'
Prop. 15: 'Anarchism strives for the complete abolition of the contrasts between individual and common interest.'
Prop. 16: 'Anarchism wants individuals to be able to develop themselves completely, that people only co-operate in voluntary ways, and that applies to all acts, that they can be done simultaneously and continuously.'
Prop. 17: 'It can be seen in history that knowledge grows, that knowledge spreads and that people change their behavior on the basis of new knowledge; not always in a pleasant direction, but nevertheless quite often they do; some developments indicate that in the end anarchism will be found to be the most attractive.'
Misunderstanding 1: 'Anarchists are bomb-throwers.'
Misunderstanding 2: 'Activism is anarchism.'
Misunderstanding 3: 'Anarchy means chaos, anarchists are chaoticists.'
Misunderstanding 4: 'Anarchism is an ethical ism, based on the idea that people are good in their hearts.'
Misunderstanding 5: 'Anarchism as an ideal is very nice, but in practice it can't work.'
Misunderstanding 6: 'Anarchism is by definition against the grain.'
Misunderstanding 7: 'The fact that anarchism is difficult, isn't something to become cheerful about.'
Misunderstanding 8: 'Anarchist people never agree with each other.'
Misunderstanding 9: 'Anarchist people can't co-operate.' |
