    #Anarchism & the #Built #Environment Guest #Lecture, Alex Head for #Oppressed #Fantasies - #Liberatory Constructions MA Seminar, Anna Kostreva - TU Darmstadt

    Discussing phase transitions between the organizational density of hunter-gatherers, early agricultural and #urban #societies are explored for clues to the day-to-day roles #anarchistic thinking and behaviors play in some of the most cherished aspects of #modern #life.

    Drawing upon the work of Emma Goldman, #Wikipedia, the members of the autonomous nation state #Frestonia, #London, and the intentional anarchist commune #Christiana, #Copenhagen.

    Are You An Anarchist? The Answer May #Surprise You.

  2. There are few if any #fantasies that involve #socialism, same with #anarchism. There are only a handful with #liberals. more so with #Fascism Almost all of them center around #monarchism and feudalism. There are #sci-fi with ones of all those systems as well with a higher level of leftists. #Kings, #knights, #princes and lords are all negative evil titles and characters to people on the left for good reason. However #Queen and #princess have taken on positive feminist meanings that have nothing to do with ruling others. Nestor Makhno was the closest thing to an anarchist #lord, as one could possibly be. Most male nobility terms will always have a negative meaning to the left. If say anarchism took off, would people be referring to a strong influential woman/girl in her local sustainable community/direct democracy workers counsel as a queen/princess? In leninism everyone was referred to as comrade. In the US at least we aren't so much hung up on titles though post Czarist Russia needed a cleaning of their feudalist past and deference to nobility and titles very quickly. It would be interesting how old titles will be reworked in a leftist world.
