Oleh: Logan Marie Glitterbomb, Teks aslinya berjudul “Funding Worker Cooperatives: A Solution”, diterjemahkan oleh Sachadru. Koperasi pekerja telah lama diperjuangkan oleh kaum anarkis, sosialis, komunis, Marxis, anti-kapitalis, dan tipe-tipe pasca-kapitalis sebagai cara untuk mencapai kepemilikan pekerja dan demokrasi di tempat kerja di dalam kapitalisme. Tidak hanya struktur internal pengambilan keputusan demokratis horizontal yang membantu memecahkan…

Worker cooperatives have long been championed by anarchists, socialists, communists, Marxists, anti-capitalists, and post-capitalist types as a means to achieve worker-ownership and workplace democracy within capitalism. Not only does their internal structure of horizontal democratic decision making help to internally solve Hayek’s local knowledge problem, but, according to Democracy At Work, [w]hen workers have a say in…

Okumak üzere olduğunuz makale Eric Fleischmann tarafından kaleme alınmış ve 7 Mart 2022 tarihinde C4SS’de yayınlanmıştır. Efsa tarafından Türkçe’ ye çevrilmiştir. Daha önce de söyledim ve yine tekrar ediyorum ki “teknolojiye öyle özel bir merakım yok. Açık kaynaklı, uçtan uca, merkezi olmayan, amaca münasip vb. teknolojilerin amigoluğunu yaparım doğru ama bunları çıkardığınızda bir zoomer’dan daha…

Introduction Cryptocurrency, a digital currency in which transactions are verified and recorded by a decentralized system using cryptography, rather than by a centralized authority, is a controversial technology amongst anarchists, even though it is often used as a tool for undermining state power. The left generally sees cryptocurrency as a negative due to its function…

Ho già detto altrove, e lo ripeto, che “non sono particolarmente amante della tecnologia. Sono sì un fan delle tecnologie open source, paritarie, decentrate, appropriate e così via, ma per il resto ne so…

I’ve admitted before and will admit again that “I am not particularly tech-savvy. I am a cheerleader for open-source, peer-to-peer, decentralized, appropriate, etc. technology, but, otherwise, I am only about as knowledgeable about this stuff as your average zoomer.” However, I have observed that with the rise of cryptocurrencies and blockchain there has emerged a line…

De Emmi Bevensee. Artículo original publicado 17 de setembre del 2021 con el título No Ethical Activism Under Capitalism: DAOs, DeFi, and Purity Politics. Traducido al español por Leo (Confoederatio Think Tank). Esta pieza fue co-autorada con Jahed Momand y Frank Miroslav. Dejen su pureza ideológica y presten atención a lo que ocurre más allá de…

Quit your purity politics and pay attention to things outside of your camp or else you’ll get wrecked by a changing world and miss meaningful opportunities.  As such, one space I’ve been paying attention to is that of Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs). Despite the fact they often have relationships with Evil naughty bad boy things…

So be sure to check out the Green Market Agorist podcast on Anchor or Spotify and check out the trailer for the Coup…

The fundamental tenet of anarchism is the resistance to an Archos, Greek for “master.” To advocate for anarchism is to position oneself in opposition to a master, i.e., to claim the fundamental right of self-determination, autonomy, and freedom from a centralized system of (especially coercive) control. To act anarchically simply means to act independently of…

Di Fritz-Anton Fritzson. Originale pubblicato il 31 ottobre 2019 con il titolo The Cryptocurrency Revolution is Already Underway. Traduzione di Enrico Sanna. Secondo Black Cat, il denaro astatuale comporta un “paradosso”: “potrà essere usato quando lo stato non sarà più lì a bloccarne l’uso, ma non finché lo stato è presente.” E però, come lui…

According to Black Cat, money without the state involves a “core paradox” – “it [non-state money] will inevitably be used without the state being there to stop its usage, but it cannot be used while the state is present.” However, as the author also acknowledges, “as people free themselves from the state, moving beyond its…

Di Black Cat. Originale pubblicato il 7 ottobre 2019 con il titolo Money Without the State. Traduzione di Enrico Sanna. David Graeber, in Debt, attacca quello che definisce “il mito del baratto”, l’idea che il denaro sia un’invenzione collettiva, uno standard universalmente riconosciuto per evitare i problemi del baratto. E ha perfettamente ragione: è un…

Graeber, in his Debt, attacks what he refers to as ‘the myth of barter’ — the idea that money is a communal invention and agreed-upon standard to avoid the problem of having to barter. He’s entirely correct — such a myth is false. However, some of his overzealous fans are incorrect — he at no…

Guida anarchica alla moda Di Logan Marie Glitterbomb. Originale pubblicato il 4 giugno 2019 con il titolo Only Anarchists Are Pretty: An Anarchist Guide to Fashion. Traduzione di Enrico Sanna. Negli anni novanta, il movimento anti globalizzazione (aziendale) dominava l’estremismo politico. Dai Girotondi contro il capitale ai Zapatistas alla battaglia di Seattle, infuriava la lotta…

In the 90’s, the anti-(corporate) globalization movement was at the forefront of the conversation in radical political circles. From the Carnival Against Capital to the Zapatistas to the Battle in Seattle, the fight against global capitalism raged on. This battle raged on side-by-side with the fight against sweatshop labor with protesters targeting companies like Gap…

Robert Reich contends that “Big Tech Has Become Way Too Powerful” (New York Times, September 20) — and so, to curb its power, big government must become way more powerful. Amazon, Apple, Facebook and Google, like the railroad and oil trusts of the Gilded Age, are to Reich the natural result of market consolidation. Retelling the civics-textbook story of…
