Nexus X HumectressBy Jade Small The OpenMind.Com With virtually no police, crime or unemployment, meet the Spanish town described as a democratic, socialist utopia. Unemployment is non-existent in Marinaleda, an Andalusian village in southern Spain that is prosperous thanks to its farming cooperative. READ MORE
By Emmy Favilla Buzzfeed This is Christiania. Stig Nygaard / Creative Commons / Via Flickr: stignygaard Its 84 acres sit on an abandoned military base, and it was founded in 1971 by squatters and artists as a “social experiment.” READ MORE
Veterans Today We are the global village bully that’s hated by much of the world. …by Joachim Hagopian for Veterans Today America loses all its wars because it seems we’ve always been on the wrong side of history. Morally nor legally should any nation have the right to […]
Well, it looks like the PC coalition cracked a lot sooner than I thought it would. Both the radical left (e.g. the left-anarchists) and the center-left coalition that is the foundation of the Democratic Party’s electoral base seem to be falling apart due to the rivalries among their […]
On the 7th of January, three Islamic gunmen stormed the offices of left-wing satirical mag Charlie Hebdo, killing eleven staff members in the ensuing bullet shower. The magazine had previously made an international name for itself by printing the Mohammed cartoons of 2006, and continuing to satirise Islam […]
By Gareth Watkins CvltNation.Com The Middle East today is the last place anyone in mainstream western thought would think to look for progressive political thought, and even less to see those thoughts translated into action. Our image of the region is one of dictatorships, military juntas and theocracies […]
Perhaps one of the most problematic issues I have encountered when attempting to communicate the ATS message is the fact that I frequently comment on a variety of topics that are only casually related or even unrelated to the essential features of the ATS message. For example, I […]
By Dan Greene So Morrissey has cancelled a gig in Iceland because the venue refused to comply with his demand that all meat be removed from the building (he’s done this before also) and it seems that he demands this from all the venues where he performs. Now […]
I have my well-known differences with Carson, but his stuff is well worth reading. Check out his archives. By Kevin Carson Center for a Stateless Society New corporate enclosures, looting and monopolies are springing up all over the place these days. Watching the news is a lot like […]
I find value in the entire spectrum of not only anarchist but also libertarian or decentralist thought generally. On the far right end, the Koch brothers are great on civil liberties, but horrendous on economics. On the far left end, Chomsky is wonderful on foreign policy, and terrible […]
Just as class divisions are the widest they have been in a century in the USA, so are ideological divisions and partisan divisions. By REP. TOM DAVIS and REP. MARTIN FROST The following is an excerpt from The Partisan Divide: Congress in Crisis, written by former Republican Rep. […]
Caity and Dan present their ideas as to why so many people in Scotland have socialist tendencies, we chat about Margaret Thatcher, the poll tax (why Murray Rothbard thought that Thatcher had missed the point of a flat tax) and how future Scottish socialist politicians got their start […]
By Samuel Goldman The American Conservative Social media gives new muscle to German Marxist Herbert Marcuse’s arguments against free discourse. (KP: See my article on Marcuse here.) Jonathan Chait burned up the Internet this week with his critique of so-called political correctness. Among many responses, Amanda Taub‘s stands […]
Libertarian Alliance By Sean Gabb I did a quick discussion this morning on LBC Radio. The subject was whether smoking should be banned in open places. I pointed out that, bearing in mind how one of the open places in questions was beside a roundabout and car park, […]
By Lew Rockwell LewRockwell.Com For a century and a half, the idea of secession has been systematically demonized among the American public. The government schools spin fairy tales about the “indivisible Union” and the wise statesmen who fought to preserve it. Decentralization is portrayed as unsophisticated and backward, […]
Anarchy, Faith, and Tradition: A Review of Wayne John Sturgeon’s Albion Awake The book is presently available at Amazon.Com By Keith Preston Decades ago, I became interested in the classical anarchist tradition rooted as it is in the works of such thinkers as Pierre Joseph Proudhon, Mikhail Bakunin, […]
Caity and Dan welcome Keith Preston back to the show for a very interesting conversation about anarchist activist and writer Emma Goldman. We begin by chatting about Emma’s life and ideas and why they are still relevant today, the Haymarket affair, Alexander Berkman, if anarchists are born and not […]
This makes sense in light of recognition that the U.S. grand strategy in the Middle East is the elimination of nationalist regimes such as Syria and Iran that stand in the way of Western domination of the region’s oil production and trade, the creation of a Greater Israel, […]
This is how you do it. Once again, the election results in Greece represent what I have been pushing for years, i.e. the creation of a radical left that eclipses the center-left and then builds a coalition with the populist right against the establishment center, the global elites […]
Some observations about the recent election in Greece. First, I am hesitant base any general assessment of Western politics on domestic Greek politics, which is still very much in the mode of mid-twentieth century models of Left and Right. Greek’s communists are Old Leftists, not New Leftists. Their […]
A discussion of the views of Michael Enoch, Greg Johnson, and myself on “Cultural Marxism.” By Duns Scotus Alternative Right by Duns Scotus Recently there has been some discussion about this thing called “Cultural Marxism,” and whether–or how–it exists or not. The discussion began with an article by […]
Dr. Gottfried and I were part of the same panel on the Left and the State at the 2014 H.L. Mencken Club conference. Here is the text of Paul’s presentation. By Paul Gottfried VDare.Com Adapted from Paul Gottfried‘s address to the 2014 H.L. Mencken Club Conference, at a […]
The political realignment I have long predicted is beginning to materialize. On economics, secularism, and (apparently) homosexuality, the National Front is now arguably the most left-wing party in France. By Rachel Halliburton The Spectator The Front National now has the support of a quarter of Paris’s gay voters […]
It is not unreasonable to suggest that the decades ahead will witness the unfolding of a golden age of anarchism. What is the evidence for this? -The most powerful state in the world, the United States, the mother country of the empire, is slowly losing its internal legitimacy […]
It can reasonably be said that the overwhelming majority of liberals, progressives, social democrats, and Marxists would affirm all or most of the following presumptions: -The state is an expression of popular democracy (see Jean Jacques Rousseau) -The ever increasing centralization of institutions is conducive to economic and […]
An interesting proposal from Joe Kopsick. See more here. This is very similar to the concept of a pan-secessionist meta-party that I wrote about in “Liberty and Populism” and that Ryan Faulk has previously suggested with his concept of an “All Nations Party.” As far as pan-anarchist/pan-secessionist involvement […]
These are some comments I recently posted in a social media forum concerning the basics of anarchist theory, and why it is important and helpful. From my readings of the classical anarchist theorists, I don’t know that any of them literally believed in a society with no social […]
As I have written before, the key strategic task for pan-anarchism is to develop a radical centrist position that is libertarian (against the state), populist (framing the conflict in terms of the people vs the elites), and revolutionary (totally rejecting the present state and ruling class). Such a […]
By Joshua Goldberg Thought Catalog Perhaps the most fundamental difference between the political right and the political left is that right-wingers hate other cultures, while left-wingers hate their own culture. Right-wing politics is all about hatred for others; left-wing politics is all about self-hatred. Since both are, at […]
By Justin Raimondo Antiwar.Com The stage is set, the actors have committed their lines to memory, and the curtain is now rising: the Great Iran Debate is on! It’s a war story, as so many of our national narratives are these days, one pitting the President of the […]
This is an extremely important development. If ISIS launches a full-scale invasion of Saudi Arabia, the U.S. would most certainly intervene on behalf of the Saudis. The State would attempt to justify the intervention against ISIS to the American people on the grounds of “We’ve gotta have oil! […]
By Michael Enoch Libertarian Alliance RightStuff.Biz It seems rather odd in this day and age to deny the existence of Cultural Marxism as an intellectual movement. But it seems that this meme has been gaining traction lately on the left. It was recently the subject of a rather […]
by Keith Preston Libertarian Alliance I generally agree with Michael Enoch’s article, with several qualifications. First, it is indeed problematic to identify as Marxism a theory that is not rooted in economic determinism and the view of class conflict as the defining element of capitalist society. Marx and […]
“The historical record is pretty clear that during the medieval period and even later Protestants, Catholics, and Muslims all engaged in fairly extensive persecutions of their sectarian opponents. In fact, the same thing still happens today in states where religion and politics have not been separated. Much of […]
Neoliberalism and totalitarian humanism converge. “Feminism: Originally a necessary and progressive movement. Today it’s a crowd of attention-starved, hysterical totalitarians masking themselves as progressives, and whose continued screaming existence shows that the movement has destroyed itself with its success. Multiculturalism: All dandy, as long as it is not […]
Great discussion
By Batidan Bantu Alexander Dugin’s The Fourth Political Theory is a highly-inventive and relevant work; its renouncement of Liberalism and, more importantly, its advocacy of a new syncretic framework –a fourth political theory to challenge the premises of liberalism, fascism, and communism– is nothing short of radical. However, […]
In a perfect world, there would be a federation of anarchist organizations, representing many kinds of political and cultural groups with a generally anti-authoritarian orientation (a libertarian Grey Tribe in opposition to the various forces of statism, totalitarianism, imperialism, militarism, corporatism, and fascism). Further, the overarching strategic outlook […]
Public opinion polls consistently indicate that roughly 1 in 4 Americans, approximately 75-80 million people, are currently sympathetic to secession by their locality or region. The obvious implication of this for those of us who are advocates of pan-secessionism is that we do not need to go out […]
By Frank Serpico Alternet In 1971, shortly after exposing widespread, even systemic corruption amounting to millions of dollars in bribes and illegitimate relationships between the New York Police Department and criminals citywide, I was shot point-blank by a dealer during a buy-and-bust drug operation. My backup team failed […]

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but the growth of pan-secessionism will definitely create some interesting dividing lines. The question of secession is my litmus test. I believe it is what separates true radicals from non-radicals (at least in the USA). The bottom line is that there are […]
We advocates of pan-secessionism do not need to grow or cultivate a constituency of our own. We already have what might be called a “sleeping constituency” of 80 million people. The only question we face is the issue of how to awake this sleeping giant, and get this […]
The Wikipedia entry on the different schools of economic thought gives a pretty good overview of all of these different methods of economic analysis. Many of the various hyphenated forms of anarchism and libertarianism involve sectarian differences between proponents of different economic theories and proposed alternative economic arrangements. […]
A very important interview that addresses many of the primary questions involved with pan-secession. Listen here.
By Samuel Arbesman We do not really think much about city-states anymore. With the exceptions of such places as Singapore and Hong Kong, the term “city-state” often conjures up the image of Athens or Sparta. However, through a bit of number-crunching of data from the United States Census, […]
Triad Conservative Last month, a highly publicized vote took place in Scotland to decide whether to secede from the United Kingdom. This vote resulted in some sentiments being exposed in the United States that are also sympathetic to the concept of secession. Newsmax first reported that there is […]
