Mutualist Blog: Free Market Anti-Capitalism

To dissolve, submerge, and cause to disappear the political or governmental system in the economic system by reducing, simplifying, decentralizing and suppressing, one after another, all the wheels of this great machine, which is called the Government or the State. --Proudhon, General Idea of the Revolution

Unfortunately The Art of the Possible blog is defunct. I do have all the posts preserved in my feed reader -- I think -- so I can email it to you if you like.

It's nice to see you write more often on the p2p foundation blog recently, while I very much like your c4ss commentary, I think your style and themes on p2pfoundation are a little different, more similar to your books.

The theme of how the internet (especially when combined with encryption and social networks) assists in the empowerment of people against capital and the state is something that occupies me a lot lately.

I think if Benjamin Tucker would have foreseen the rise of these technologies he would have never become so pessimist as he did in his late life;

I guess it'll have to wait till the state governments are much weaker than they are now.
