Au cours des dernières décennies, aux États-Unis, des personnes salariées du bas de l’échelle, dans ce type de services – surtout des femmes, des immigrants et des immigrantes, des sans-papiers – se sont mobilisés pour exercer leur droit d’association, pour obtenir des salaires décents, pour se faire reconnaître la pleine citoyenneté, mêlant donc luttes politiques et luttes économiques, sur une base territoriale (une ville, le plus souvent).

I take no pleasure in showing up Bookchin’s contradictions and personal revisionism. It is a shame that he ended such a fruitful political life by writing such rubbish.

Anarchism reminds us that “left-wing nationalism” does not exist, a clear oxymoron, as Latin American populism is nothing more than an attempt to build or reinforce, at most, a state capitalism with a new national bourgeoisie projecting itself as “progressive,” “patriotic,” and “anti-imperialist” against the old oligarchy. Yet, in reality, due to its class interest, it soon abandons the popular agenda in favor of new alliances with global capital and imperialism.

« Some of us were also members of IWW, and without doubt we loved IWW, but also craved a worker’s organization that saw the social revolution as the alternative to the State. »
