Anarchist News In the non-utopic utopia of bolo’bolo, no ibu (person more or less) can be expelled from a bolo (an autonomous, autarkic collection of 300-500 ibu). Within that imagined world of interdependence, where the 300-500 people in your immediate vicinity rely on you and you them for […]

By Glenn Greenwald In the U.S. corporate media, the surest way to advance is to loyally spread lies and deceit from the U.S. security state. Bertrand is just the latest example. The most important axiom for understanding how the U.S. corporate media functions is that there is never […]

Justice in a corrupt society Why is it that there is no expensive tribunals set up to ‘establish the truth’ about joyriding in Darndale Crime and community policing The term ‘community policing’ has been much abused in recent times, most particularly in the North of Ireland where it […]
Solidarity Federation Anarchists are repeatedly accused by their detractors of being idealist, utopian and impractical. One matter, on which the libertarian perspective is often seen as particularly weak, is the thorny topic of crime. It would be fair to say that the “all coppers are bastards”-type polemics trotted […]
This is pretty interesting although I’m not sure I agree on every point.

When I started ATS 20 years ago, the main objective I wanted to promote was to end US imperialism by dissolving the United States itself, a goal I had originally embraced in the 1980s. Initially, I had thought anarcho-syndicalism would be the vehicle but being involved with actual […]
