Subject: | Re: [WDDM] Anarchism and Direct Democracy |
Dear Mirek (and list)
......
On this basis, I go to my Oxford Advanced Learners dictionary
and read under the items:
- Anarchy = 1. absence of government or control in society.
Lawlessness. 2. Disorder, confusion
- Anarchism = political theory that laws and government should
be abolished.
- Anarchist = person who believes in anarchism
........
In conclusion, it seems to me that the ten points in your quote
belong to genuine democracy, something else but anarchism.
That the anarchist may claim that those ten points belong to
"anarchism", it sounds somehow abusive, the dictionary tells.
Hoping this helps, best regards
