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

Richard Garner, Rest in Peace
I just learned that prolific UK Libertarian Alliance writer Richard Garner is dead.
My first knowledge of him was via his "What Is Mutualism?" pamphlet at Larry Gambone's Red Lion Press, which I encountered when I was just beginning to explore mutualist anarchism and the Internet.
Since then he moved rightward and I've moved leftward, but he always remained personally affable and courteous, and a most lucid writer even when expressing ideas I disagreed with.
Here are two appreciations of him.
