"This is a manifesto for a wilder democracy. This is an ethic for free, courageous and anarchic democrats. Courage is necessary because fear is the death of democracy. Fear--fear for personal security, fear of change and loss--leads to fascism and authoritarianism. Anarchy protects us. Anarchy is not a license, anarchy is the shadow and salvation of democracy, the discipline of the free. Wild democracy is nurtured in anarchic spaces. The Western canon...

Paris, avril 1850. Un jeune homme fait paraître ce qui peut être considéré comme le premier manifeste anarchiste de l'histoire. Publié dans le premier numéro de L'Anarchie. Journal de l'ordre, ce Manifeste constitue un virulent plaidoyer contre la farce électorale, la fourberie des partis politiques, ainsi qu'un vibrant appel à l'abstention généralisée.
On sait peu de choses du singulier personnage que fut Anselme Bellegarrigue (1813-1869),...

" C'est chimère d'attendre que l'Anarchie, idéal humain, puisse sortir de la République, forme gouvernementale. Les deux évolutions se font en sens inverse, et le changement ne peut s'accomplir que par une rupture brusque, c'est-à-dire par une révolution. C'est par décret que les républicains font le bonheur du peuple, par la police qu'ils ont la prétention de se maintenir ! Le pouvoir n'étant autre chose que l'emploi de la force, leur premier...

With the rise of the global protestor-from Arab Spring to the Occupy movement-the term "anarchist" has been littered throughout mainstream media as never before. But just as frequently, its definition is skewed or left wanting: anarchists are painted as nihilists, supporters of chaos, or even terrorists. In Order without Power, an informative primer, Normand Baillargeon thoroughly defines anarchism and recounts its long history. In outlining the forerunners...
