(en) Russia, Avtonom: Cooperation: anarchist circle in Irkutsk (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

Date Thu, 18 Sep 2025 09:08:12 +0300


On Sunday, August 24, at 4:00 pm, an anarchist circle on the topic of "Cooperation" will be held in the Irkutsk space " Black Square " (Sergeeva 3a/13, how to get there ) . ---- It would seem that everything is clear with it. A positive attitude towards it directly follows from anarchist ideas. But if we think strategically: to what extent are cooperatives capable of achieving anything? Isn't this in fact a method of escapism or co-optation of "fighters for justice" into the system? To what extent is the position of cooperatives legitimate in anarchism?
All this will be discussed at the upcoming anarcho-circle. And, if time permits, such topics as kibbutzim, cooperatives of the late USSR and some others will also be touched upon.

Before the circle, several critical works are offered for reading:

1. Bakunin's recently translated work, " Letters to the Editors of Proletario Italiano ," where Bakunin expounds in some detail his arguments against cooperation.

2. " The Co-op Debate " - a dispute among English anarchists about how to respond to the 2008 crisis.

You can also share links to works with a different view of cooperation in the comments to the announcement of the anarcho-circle in the telegram channel " Black Square ".
