Would folks be interested in reading some chapters from a new book called _Anarchism and Education_ by Judith Suissa (2006)? It’s a clearly written, philosophical approach with the following chapters: 1) Anarchism – definitions and questions; 2) Anarchism and human nature; 3) Anarchist values?; 4) Authority, the state and education; 5) The positive core of anarchism; 6) Anarchism goes to school (histories of anarchist schools); 7) Education for an anarchist society;
What’s so funny about anarchism?
If you’re down, we could just start with the 1st chapter (23 pages) and see where to go from there.
Hi all,
I would be in favor of reading some of Todd May’s Poststructuralist Anarchism, maybe the whole thing. I’d also like to do more in-depth readings than last semester with deeper engagements of what is going on. There are also some articles by May that we could read instead of the book that draw on Deleuze and Ranciere. – every other tuesday evening would probably work for me.

am i just doing it wrong?
